Harvard Prof: CDC’s Guidelines Would Close Schools That Are Open, If They’re Followed, ‘Kids Are Not Getting Back’
Breitbart ^ | February 19, 2021 | Ian Hanchett

On Friday’s broadcast of NPR’s “Morning Edition,” Director of the Harvard Healthy Buildings Program and Associate Professor Dr. Joseph Allen criticized the CDC’s school re-opening guidelines by stating that if schools follow the guidelines, schools that are open now would close, and “if schools start following this new guidance strictly, kids are not getting back to full-time school.”

Allen said, “We’ve seen examples where schools have stayed open and have been effectively open with very little in-school transmission, even in communities with high community spread. In fact, CDC’s own report has shown that. We’ve also seen the opposite. We’ve seen low community spread, poor controls in school, and cases. So, the community spread metric idea sounds great, but the reality is, it doesn’t really tell us what’s happening in schools. 90% of the schools right now in the U.S. are in what CDC deems the red zone, even schools that have been open with no cases or very little to no transmission in the schools. So, essentially, reliance on community spread metrics means schools will stay closed, or they won’t get back to full in-person learning any time soon.”

Host Steve Inskeep then stated, “It sounds like you’re telling me that some schools, if they strictly followed these guidelines, would actually close, schools that are open now.”...

I find it interesting that this discussion took place on NPR.

I wonder if the Karens who listen to it had get their Prozac prescriptions increased to deal with the cognitive dissonance.

The CDC is a propaganda spreader of disinformation. They are a public relations firm for The Great Reset.

Ruin childrens’ lives, ruin the economy, watch suicides and domestic violence reach record levels, and spend your days as a mask-wearing, faceless robot.

Big Brother has spoken.

The latest CDC school opening guidelines, as Dr. Allen pointed out on NPR (and as he also wrote in a Washington Post op-ed on February 12) are actually school CLOSING guidelines which, if followed, would not only close schools that are open now but would, in all probability, close them for the 2021-2022 school year as well.

Biden’s people manipulated the guidelines to support their closed schools policy.
