Many teachers and families feared a spike in COVID-19 cases when Florida made the controversial push to reopen schools in August with in-person instruction.
But a USA TODAY analysis shows the state’s positive case count among kids aged 5 to 17 declined through late September after a peak in July. Among the counties seeing surges in overall cases, it’s college-age adults – not school children – driving the trend, the analysis found.
The early results in Florida show the success of rigorous mask-wearing, social distancing, isolating contacts, and quick contact tracing when necessary, said health experts.
“Many of the schools that have been able to successfully open have also been implementing control measures that are an important part of managing spread in these schools,” said Dr. Nathaniel Beers, who serves on the American Academy of Pediatrics Council on School Health.

There is typically an "immediacy" to their behaviors.

I said the other say Maskachusetts restaurants can use their bar seating again?  I didn't realize, they can only do that if they put up partitions between seats.

I’m surprised they published something that was positive and uplifting.

I like how they take credit for wearing masks and keeping 50 ft apart.

My guess herd immunity is happening. Since those other things are just a placebo

My son is on his 3rd week at school. They do have 3 or 4 yooge tents out where the playground is and softball field. In case it rains or whatever, so they can still go outside. They are trying to do as much outside as they can, but 3/4 of the time they are in the class.

It doesn't matter how often they get the science wrong.  They will just keep saying they are the party of science.

It's important that they think themselves to be smart.  They don't realize that a guy in a white coat with a stethoscope around his neck is one of the oldest advertising gimmicks in the book.
