Province should reduce capacity in other areas before keeping schools closed, says head of Ontario’s COVID-19 science table
The Ford government should not close schools until it further clamps down on capacity limits and urges more people to work from home, says the scientific director of the province’s COVID-19 science table. The government said Wednesday that its goal is to keep kids in class, in person, through to June. Ontario Education Minister Stephen Lecce and Chief Medical Officer of Health Dr. Kieran Moore have also said their priority is to keep schools open. We can’t tell how much schools will contribute.”The Ontario Public School Boards’ Association said it hopes for news from the government sooner rather than later. What’s going to happen Monday if there’s no school?” said president Cathy Abraham, who also wants N95 masks for all staff.
