Gov Idiot just closed all NM schools starting Monday for at least 3 weeks.

Most of Albuquerque shuts down when schools get canceled for a snow day.

I'm not happy. I'm glad I've been sticking up on essentials for awhile. No I'm not talking tp

Canceled our high school b-ball tournament tonight. I fell so bad for all those kids that busted their tails all year long! What a load of crap. I thought maybe just maybe Kansas was immune from it, but I was wrong. I’m lost for words!!!!!!!!!!!!

It is worse than is being reported. The reported numbers are a lie, hospital workers are being quarantined in the hospital for 14 days and supervisors are being told to tell other employees they took a vacation. Death rate globally is 3.4%. Shutting down schools is smart

Much of Ohio is closed now too, including schools where students meet face to face. There are only 5 known cases of coronavirus in Ohio, but they think 100,000 plus people are infected in Ohio, who don't know it.

3.4% of what? The infected that have been tested or the infected or the world population.

There is no way of knowing the global death rate. Lots of infected people go unreported or have no signs of it. The world has gone nuts!

Nope, skies not falling but it sure makes sense not to pack a bunch of kids together in schools.

Who is going to watch all those kids if they cannot be in a group setting? Most homes have both parents working to keep afloat. The effects of preventing the virus are going to be 100x+ worse than the virus itself.

I don't think its the kids they are worried about, but grandpa and grandma that the kids will carry it to.
If its all a lie then there has been a lot more damage been done to this country than just some kids missing going to their teacher baby sitters.

I have been thinking about why we are being intentionally scared. Closing schools, restricting people from gathering and even scaring people into getting a month or more's shopping done all at once does have a purpose. It will hopefully slow the spread of coronavirus enough to keep the few percent of Americans, who will need medical treatment from overwhelming the hospitals, urgent cares and doctor's offices. The US medical system has very little capacity to handle more cases of anything. There is no profit in having unused staff and equipment. If the small percent of the population that will be effected all needed medical assistance in a short period, medical staff would be forced to go into triage mode and pick who to save, rather than being able to give care to all who need it.

Exactly. It’s not like most parents have leave to burn. It all costs...

The best thing to do would be to hire the more responsible highschool and college kids to watch the younger kids, while they are off school too.

Really?

I'm working in a hospital in Tulsa right now. The only people here are my guys and the security guards, no one is quarantined here. And yes, there are 2 confirmed cases in Tulsa already so it's not like this area is untouched.

Keeping kids home forcing a parent to stay home is not going to help anything.
I went for groceries early shelves where nearly wiped out. It's a good thing I know how to hunt fish and tap as well as grow food.

Where is this happening? How do you expect workers to not tell their family that they're being quarantined who then will tell other friends & relatives and it will be the worst kept secret ever. That's far fetched and something that happens in a communist country which they're are some on here that would like living in one I believe.

The obvious answer is that it reinforces the idea of the government as god and Savior. Whether that is the only reason or not may be debatable, but there is no doubting that this is forcing government dependency. Short step to police rule/ martial law.
