Dr. Anthony Fauci said on “This Week” Sunday morning that “the default position” should be “to keep the children in school or to get them back in school”:
"Close the bars and keep the schools open," says Fauci on @ThisWeekABC. "The default position should be to try… to keep the children in school or to get them back to school. … If you look at the data, the spread among children and from children is not really very big at all."

Now, can someone please alert the City of Atlanta which is allowing schools to open to film the next Spider-Man movie and not for actual schooling?
Why parents in some Georgia school districts are frustrated, in a nutshell: Atlanta students still don’t know when they can return to classrooms, but the cast of "Spider-Man" is about to film in two local high schools. #gapol https://t.co/Xkrq6ZWxCl

Now, will there be ANY accountability for those who were wrong?
No public policy this year has been more divorced from the science & more damaging to children than closing down the schools, and yet this was turned into a wedge issue that allowed people to feel justified in calling their political opponents killers if they wanted schools open. https://t.co/lKQtNPpE7c

The list is long. Very long:
The people keeping schools shut down in spite of public health recommendations should have to answer for the harm they’re needlessly causing. pic.twitter.com/SR5kXvcmnZ
