Our students have been held hostage for far too long.

Other states have had kids in classrooms for months, some I know personally in Italy returned to school LAST MAY.

We will not be able to justify school closures when the information comes to light about the numbers of children who died from Covid vs suicide.

This is a lesson on how we respond: Many years ago Polio left it’s crippled victims among us, we regularly witnessed the permanent havoc that this virus had on our family and friends. When the Polio vaccine was available I do not recall any reluctance to get this as soon as it was available. Later there were the KO Polio vaccine drives, with helicopters flying in the big cities to announce the availability of the second wave of a vaccine on a sugar cube. Schools required it, we squelched this curse. Today we hear of people getting very sick and or dying from this new virus. This reality has not been in my face like I remember Polio to be so yes there is a reluctance to infuse something in my body. So do you wait until you know someone who has died or do you participate in a KO Corona drive so everyone can have a measured level of safety? KO is for Knock Out.
