Then you throw in those, parents, food/supplies, modifications for medical (I have a girl who needs hard copies due to a concussion in soccer so electronic is out), extended time, state mandated testing required for graduation, prom, spring sports, graduation ceremony...paying hourly employees...it’s unprecedented and I don’t envy anyone here. If states that shut down don’t waive the mandated testing, that’s going to be a firestorm. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah but you know how that goes, the materials have already been bought, so caring about the common sense solution is a coin flip at best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

D82 Posted March 15, 2020 Share Posted March 15, 2020 I really need to stay off Facebook for a little bit. The level of denial and outright idiotic statements I see some of my friends making makes my head hurt. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They started the quarantine on March 10th, the effects should be noted in a week more or less. By that time they will probably have around 10K deaths and 100K infected. Maybe even more.
