The new testing protocol will include mass testing before school reopens followed by weekly surveillance testing.

The state will provide free rapid-result test kits for schools wishing to participate.

This breaking announcement comes after schools in red and orange zones were closed by the government for the second time, approximately one month ago.

Since that closure, community leaders and politicians have tried unsuccessfully to broker an agreement with the state and local authorities to allow for a reopening.

More details will be released as they become available.

He knows Covid will spread over Halloween and Christmas, and the non Jewish areas will become red zones. But he doesn’t want to close their schools, so he’s very quickly opening Jewish schools so we can’t claim that he isn’t being fair and equal…

He will then close them if there are 2 positive cases. This is what he wanted from the start. Can’t win with him. We need to show them demos that we have a united vote!

Umm Mr Phineas , dumb people are not smart are whatever your name is. Could it be Coumo chaps how dumb and wrong he was? What changed all of a sudden?

My guess is, he plans on shutting down other hoods but je knows with them he can’t close schools.

Either way this proves that all along this was one big fat hoax. It was intended as a punishment to boost his ego.

FYI Phineas, Just to be clear so you don’t say I am “insular” I do not think we need to flaunt the law and daven at a Bobov minyan factory in the weekday. I can’t think of any spirtual reason why that’s needed. So yes I am against that. (I do see a need on shabbos to be with the reba but lets work on the other 6 days)
