Biden: Schools Will “Probably” Be Fully Open By Fall

The Hill reports:

President Biden in an interview that aired Friday said that schools should all be open for five days a week in-person learning in the fall despite the fact that children likely will not be vaccinated by then. “Based on the science and the CDC, they should probably all be open,” Biden said in an interview that aired on NBC’s Today. “There’s not overwhelming evidence there’s much of a transmission among these people, young people,” Biden added.

“Kids in K-12 schools obviously are not going to be able to get the vaccine by the fall. Should all schools in this country be open this fall for 5 day-a-week in-person learning regardless?”
