    Former CDC director says US ‘paid a serious price’ by keeping schools closed

    Since the US COVID response has been purely political it belongs in this forum. Anyway, the Branch Covidians have really screwed up out children with their hysteria.

    Former CDC director says US ‘paid a serious price’ by keeping schools closed

    Former CDC Director Robert Redfield, a major figure in the federal government’s pandemic response in 2020, said the country “paid a serious price” by closing schools as numerous school districts nationwide have once again closed classrooms.

    In an interview with the Washington Examiner, Redfield lamented the number of schools that failed to open amid the COVID-19 pandemic and took aim at teachers who continue to fight in-person learning, noting healthcare workers like himself assume risk when going to work each day and that teachers should assume the same.

    "Virtual learning is not in the public health interest of the K-12 students," Redfield said. "And I think we paid a serious price because that was not embraced."


    “We healthcare professionals took a vocation, we understand within that vocation, there's some risk,” he added. “Well, I would argue the same goes for our teachers, it's a vocation. And I think the teachers need to embrace their ability to teach.”
    Redfield called some of the damage inflicted by school closings “irreversible.”

    They have done more than just screw up kids. They screwed up an election and the entire country.
