@MOREcaucusUFT @rweingarten @UFT @NYCSchools @CTULocal1 Schools are “so safe” my son’s school is closed for a third consecutive day... now the 6th closure since returning after Holiday break... the NYC percentage of teachers/staff/students sick with COVID has drastically increased. Why is this allowed?! What about this is safe?

@lauranbowman @CDCgov It would be nice to see some of the @CDCgov actually make some school visits and talk to teachers. This is no different from what they said before is it?
