Ok.Parents have to go back to work.Keeping a kid home missing work isn’t a option for some. So kids will go to school. Ppe.Lottsa Lysol should be provided.And like it or not mask.Because some kids D’s Love to hug . I don’t think anyone can know what’s gonna happen. But blamming people needs to stop. Try figuring out a way to help. They need to learn and we need to work.

You say keeps sick kids at home; however, a person can have the virus 2 to 14 days before symptoms appear. They say don’t panic but like mentioned “they” knew about this since Nov 2019 and kept it secret. They say don’t panic – at the end of Feb only about 2 states WA and OR had known cases; by Mar 01 that was up to 6 states; now Mar 03 it is up to 15 states – that is doubled in just a couple of days, I have some masks and gloves already. Sorry, just cannot trust the government any more.

@JB What do you mean when you say most of US products are made in China? The groceries we buy and eat are not made in China. The gas we use in cars and cars too are not made in China. The houses we live in were not built in China. Cheap electronics and clothes are made in China. They pose no risk whatsoever concerning the virus. Nothing coming from China except people bring any virus threats.

The virus itself is just a common flu, just a bit more virulent. 20 000 have died in US from a common flue since the Chinese virus outbreak, yet a few cases of the Chinese flu cause panic. The media is very successful in spreading fear. Do you remember chicken flue, pig flue, SARS and other media panic attacks? They feed on the fear, scared population is easier to control.

The coronavirus came from China where most of the U.S. products etc are made. China did this. So only thing we can do is hope for the best and take every precaution available. Wash often, sanitize often, dont touch anything unless absolutely necessary, etc etc. Theres nothing we can do about the virus. Its something New China created so there’s nothing to do but pray and be cautious. The School system sucks. Point blank in many areas. They dont know anything more than we do and are only saying this to so-called protect their own butts. Also, those who buy from WISH I would wait a while before buying anything cuz all of it comes from China. At least what ive seen. Wash and sanitize hands often, disinfect home once or twice a week depending on how many is in your home, and just use common sense.

@Anne
ECSD deserves bashing for
1) Lying (they said they were monitoring the virus since November 2019, but the first cases were not reported until late December 2019)
2) For being so incompetent that they couldn’t even produce a believable lie.

Somehow this whole corona affair seems odd – maybe deliberately blown out of proportion for reasons unknown. In Germany a dermatologist went to a convention in Northern Italy (where the virus is supposedly rampant,) returned and practiced 2 days before exhibiting symptoms of the illness and is now in quarantine along with numerous patients and their contacts. His clinic is shut down. Cannot believe any doctor would be so stupid to deliberately expose himself to a mysterious illness and put numerous patients at risk if the virus were a real threat to him.
PS: maybe they try to weed out the aging and sick world population, since they are the ones dying due to underlying medical issues!

Y’all that are out here bashing the ECSD for making this announcement make me wonder why you’re not putting forth YOUR Plan that must be so much better and more effective.

C’mon, if you have something Great to HELP then put it here so we can all benefit.

Florida School Districts must comply with directives and rules/laws set by the State Legislature (we vote for them by the way) and the Fla Dept of Education.

Reading the article it pretty well lays out the influence of the Legislature and FLDOE: “… plans, as set forth by the Florida Department of Education (FLDOE) and the Florida Department of Health (FDOH),”

Yep, if YOU are sick no matter from what STAY HOME.
If your Kids are sick KEEP Them Home until they’re well, don’t send them out to infect others.
Wash your hands, don’t touch your hands to eyes, mouth, nose which are openings for germs, bacteria, virus. Use Common (it’s not so Common y’all) Sense and be Well.

God Bless and cover your mouth and nose whenever you cough or sneeze.
