They say the cover up is often worse than the crime. With school closings that will mean efforts by the lockdown mob to eliminate testing so that nobody ever finds out how much education the kids missed. Watch for it!

School closings and lockdowns. It is clear that many teachers, union leaders, administrators and politicians care a lot more about protecting against a negligible threat to their own health, while ignoring immense harm to children. https://t.co/x10GhtB5qO
