If kids have no protection in schools, close them or do remote learning.

They should've never opened the schools in the 1st dam place

Think schools will have remote learning while omicron surges, don't know why there is so much pressures to keep schools open, know it's a money thing, but what's another week or two? While this Omicron surges.

So many airlines cancel flights but schools staying open?? Right

[shohelihossain]

All flights canceled but school open. It's not fun

[shohelihossain]

Very very risky for kids. Kids is the most valuable for every parents

[LGKids]

So crazy that no one wants to say, oh heck naw, we can’t send kids, teachers and staff back in the buildings! Just walk into the storm and see what happens is the mentality of the we have the school funds, we need the children for attendance to keep that money, school districts! Smh!

Thank you to the very popular podcaster and doctor for opening my eyes as to what's really going on.

CA, my thought, why not we all SoCal people to get Omicron while it is not deadly yet? This would be a huge threat to vaccine makers, but we will not get boosters monthly💢

[shohelihossain]

They are not taking seriously Corona virus. Kids life is so risky. How open tomorrow school

[Jadesthefox]

It's gonna make it very risky for students to head back to school even if some students gets exposed during school hours soon. Even if some students are Vaccinated depending of what shot they took. Even if omicron gets worse soon then NY will be set to lockdown again like what happened since 2020

[tonyahenry]

Go to zoom classes if you’re so worried about gettin covid 🦠

LAUSD probably becomes online hybrid! They’ve done it before, why not this Onicron, right?

[lowtiertactical]

Print some more of that money so us essential and former workers can retire early. We’re owed. Our society had its protection classes. We should be afforded the same.

[getsmart]

Ridiculous. Children are not getting sick.
