Greater than what? I’m open to listening to alternative view points, but this guy needs to address why it’s a greater health risk to leave kids at home.

A reporter from LA stated that around 40,000 high school students (mostly minorities) didn't even log in one time for their virtual classes during the spring.
You're forcing parents to choose between their jobs and kids by making kids stay at home. That in and of itself is devasting for families.
Single moms from predominantly minority poorer communities now have their kids at home, they probably don't even have the equipment to do school from home and them being home is a distraction.
It's truly not hard to think why kids staying home would be a bad thing.
Your also depriving kids of social interaction something that's very key in their development as they grow.

Do not question, just follow the herd.
The question is no longer, "Ask not what your country can do for you, but what you can do for your country."
Nowadays it's "Ask not what you can do for your country, but what your country can do for you?"
