Anecdotally, I have never heard anyone make the argument "no one can ever get covid again" nor heard of a school being closed because "a person got near a person with COVID".
- angelzen 5y agoAnectodally, last school year all in-person schools were closed in WA state. https://www.governor.wa.gov/news-media/inslee-extends-school-closures-rest-2019-20-school-year https://www.governor.wa.gov/news-media/inslee-extends-school...
- hairofadog 5y agoSorry, yeah, I should have been more clear: I have heard of schools being closed, just not for the reason that "someone got near someone with covid". Inslee's statement says the reason is due to "increasing rates of COVID-19 related infections, hospitalizations and death", but maybe you have additional information about the real reason.
