Fauci says reopening all schools by April might not be possible amid concerns over new coronavirus variants

President Joe Biden says he wants most schools serving kindergarten through eighth grade to reopen by late April, but even if that happens, it is likely to leave out millions of students, many of them minorities in urban areas.

“We’re going to see kids fall further and further behind, particularly low-income students of color,” said Shavar Jeffries, president of Democrats for Education Reform. “There’s potentially a generational level of harm that students have suffered from being out of school for so long.”

Like some other officials and education advocates, Jeffries said powerful teachers unions are standing in the way of bringing back students. The unions insist they are acting to protect teachers and students and their families.

In a call Thursday evening with teachers unions, Dr. Anthony Fauci, the federal government’s top infectious disease expert, said the reopening of K-8 classrooms nationally might not be possible on Biden’s time frame. He cited concern over new variants of the virus that allow it to spread more quickly and may be more resistant to vaccines.

Keep schools shut down forever. Stay home forever. Wear four masks at a time. Get your vaccine. Social distance forever. Shut your business down forever.

Easy to say when you keep getting paid.

We all predicted that this little ferret would find new strains before it even became public. The NWO wants 100% compliance. Or else.

Look up what he is paid. The highest paid employee of the federal government....more than the pres.

Plus the money he gets from inside trading.

“We’re going to see kids fall further and further behind, particularly low-income students of color,”

How much further behind can it be?

Ever notice how Fauci’s posts are to extend it along? He is making money from it. That is why!

How long until even Biden says “That Fauci twit is a little annoying, isn’t he? I’ve had just about enough of him.”

At $440,000.00 he is the highest paid federal employee.

Now, lets examine his record:

Under his oversight there have been about 440,000 deaths (according to their statistics)

So, given these numbers, it makes this mass killer the lowest paid American government assasin. $1.00 per hit
