I have trouble understanding why this prevents anyone from taking legal action. Maybe the action cannot be directed against the schools, but surely in this case you can challenge the CDC guidelines, because there seems to be direct proof of personal injury (i.e. getting ill) as a result of this? How does this work?
- Consultant32452 6y agoThe Department of Transportation recommends allowing people to drive on the roads, but you don't get to sue them just because there's a car accident. We know, statistically, that some people will die going to school even without COVID. The CDC and other regulators are taking a broad view that includes 2nd and 3rd order effects from their recommendations. They're trying to make decisions for the long term while recognizing that any decision they make in either direction is going to result in deaths.
