The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has released a series of new guidelines in favor of sending children back to the classroom.
The CDC said universal K-12 health screenings are not recommended for kids to be safe in class. Instead, parents or caregivers should monitor a child’s health, and if kids are showing signs of COVID-19, they should be kept at home. The CDC also recommended that children sit in pods while in the classroom to reduce the risk of transmission.
