The head of Ottawa's children's hospital is calling for a full return to school this September, warning the pandemic is hurting kids' mental health. "The conversation we should be having is, how do we get back to five day a week school and child care? "They've lost school and daycare, friends. "Five day a week is likely safer than two or three day a week school," said Munter. Etches said the new mandatory mask policy will hopefully help to manage community spread so that kids can return to school.
