Mayor De Blasio Says NYC Schools Won’t Fully Reopen Until There Is A Vaccine
thefederalist ^ | 07/23/2020 | Jonah Gottschalk

New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio said on MSNBC’s “Morning Joe” Wednesday that the city’s schools will not be fully open until a vaccine is available. He also stated that a decision on even a partial reopening wouldn’t happen until at least September, making a limited return to class then highly unlikely.

The move would constitute the most aggressive step yet the city has taken in preventing students from returning to normal classes. It comes in sharp contrast to plans from de Blasio just two weeks ago when the mayor previously promised a schedule wherein schools would be open for the fall, with parents deciding whether their children should be taught in person or virtually.

If that is the case, give everybody their tax money back, fire the admin staff, sports staff, and layoff teachers. I hate this POS.

They aren’t learning anything anyway, so not a big deal.

Seeing as we are still awaiting that AIDS vaccine, this may save the country from the Ministry of Education indoctrination.

Yes...this is great news. Now is the time to defund the doctrination system that the Marxists who have taken over this country’s education system have established.

Europe and Asia have reopened their schools—they’ve been reopened for months.

The United States simply does not value children, or education. The rest of the Western and civilized world does. The pandemic has made this shockingly clear.

We are heading into a fall where the vast majority of American children will only be offered subpar “distance education.” Soulless and sad.

Yes, some will get some good homeschooling now, and the wealthy are hiring tutors and getting “learning pods” together, but that won’t be the experience for most— millions of others.

The schools are a waste anyway. Home schooling strengthens the family and the bond between parents and children.

March 2020: “15 days to flatten the curve”

July 2020: Face masks, social distancing, assorted other arbitrary dictates, until there’s a vaccine, or until the tyrants “allow” you to resume some degree of “normal” life.

But life will NEVER be “normal” again. The politicans, fearbros, and Karens have brought us here.

Nobody is “defunding the indoctrination system.” If anything, the public schools are getting MORE, and staying closed MORE.

They got a ton of “pandemic relief” early on and now are getting $150 billion per Trump yesterday.

There is no defunding. There is the opposite. And teachers contracts are locked in through next year.

Good. Defund the schools and the indoctrinators. The kids learn nothing but hate in those hellholes anyway.

This is the RAT dream. A generation of people who can’t tie their shoes and need RATs to wipe their pathetic hineys.

You’re looking at a year or 2 before there’s a “ vaccine” AND it’s been decided who gets it AND time shows how many victims are damaged by the “ cure’”

Most parents in the United States value their children. Many who choose to live in New York City and send them to New York City schools don't value their children but that was evident long before the fake Wuhanic Plague.

These are bankrupt Democrat states that are cutting non-favored expenses wherever they can.

Right-can’t pay people to sit at home. NEA will find a way to get around that.

Taxpayers are getting hosed... pay taxes and get NOTHING. It’s theft!

Yeah, the indoctrination centers are closed. Now is the time for parents to teach them things they will need to succeed in life.

Sounds like a mandatory vaccine is in the works.
