I'm on mobile so can dig up links later. But one of the things I see mostly cited in foreign press is the decision to not shut down all schools.
Universities and what would be equivalent to high schools are doing distance learning, but lower grades are mostly open. The department of health has mostly cited two things for not closing lower grades.
1. Little evidence that younger people are the main vectors spreading the virus.
And 2. That if we shut down schools parents would need to stay home (and are encouraged to stay home via our social programs), and that would include a lot of healthcare workers placing our system under too much stress.
