I swear I always had a cold. Since then, never. Schools are Petri dishes, especially elementary schools.

Jul 2020

On June 3, two weeks after schools opened, more than 244 students and staff were found to test positive for COVID-19.

According to the education ministry, 2,026 students, teachers, and staff have contracted COVID-19, and 28,147 are in quarantine due to possible contagion.

Just in the first two weeks of July, 393 kindergartens and schools open for summer programs have been shuttered due to cases of COVID-19.

And apparently being a middle schooler is especially problematic.
