Eric Adams Will Allow the Children to Go to School with Testing

Yesterday, Adams went to Concourse Village Elementary School. There he gave a speech that makes it clear his education policy is keeping schools open through the Omicron COVID variant. Adults are treated differently.

“We’re really excited about the opening of our schools, and we want to be extremely clear: the safest place for our children is in a school building. And we are going to keep our schools open, and ensure that our children are safe in a safe environment.”

At a later point in his remarks, Adams described how it’s better for kids to be in schools instead of on the streets and more vulnerable to crime. He also touched on the burden that remote learning placed on parents during the past few years.

The specifics are:

  • Home Test Kits: “Beginning January 3, schools will distribute free, take-home COVID-19 rapid test kits to any student or staff who exhibit COVID-like symptoms or have been in a classroom where a positive case has been identified.”
  • Students will have to take two COVID tests – one on the first day they get a test, and then one five days later – and will have to isolate and quarantine for ten days if they get a positive result on either one.
  • New Quarantine Policy: For all students, K through 12, even the unvaccinated don’t have to quarantine if they don’t show symptoms and don’t get a positive result from a COVID test (under the reporting system outlined above). However, kids younger than Kindergarten age will still have to quarantine for ten days.
  • Increased In-School Surveillance Testing: All students from the first grade and upwards will still be subjected to random “surveillance testing.” The only addition being added on to this aspect is that NYC schools are doubling their quota on tests conducted.

Adams doesn’t have the same consideration for adults whose careers are on the line. In those matters, he follows the De Blasio communist way.

Bogus test kits produced by the CCP and purchased by wholesalers to then be resold to George Soros’ accomplices and collaborators. Soros accomplices included Walmart, CVS, Walgreens, Koger, Costco, Kohls, Macys, JCPenney, Amazon, BestBuy and numerous other ‘retailers’ in disguise.

The People who have bought into the Covid Hoax have destroyed yet another Generation of Children in America. SARS-Cov-2 was never much of a threat to children in school and that was clear by the early Summer of 2020. It wasn’t even a real threat to teachers in good health. It’s concerning that America’s Teachers can be so easily duped,… Read more »
