Back to School! Or not....

Really important @ScienceMagazine story on what we've learned from recent school re-openings across the planet.

Big takeaway: "the benefits of attending school seem to outweigh the risks—at least where community infection rates are low." https://t.co/4KMuHmo1Cd

Texas announced 10,000 new cases of covid-19 yesterday.  And a record high of 60 new deaths.

Schools are set to open in mid-August.  The only advice from TEA to schools is to move desks six feet apart, if possible, and require students to wear masks as long as the Governor says so.

This is only going to get worse.
