@espiers I felt the same way about the White House pr guy. Also nice: That refreshing feeling (perhaps delusional!) that objectively bad behavior might have real world consequences. — PolitiTweet.org

The money here - at least for one country - isn’t material to FB or GOOG. It’s precedent for all the other countries lining up. FB is saying it won’t agree to govt mandates; GOOG waves a white flag. — PolitiTweet.org

@zeynep Otoh I keep hearing that nyc is going to change its shutdown rules wrt to testing - currently schools are shut for 10 days if there are two unconnected cases, which makes it nearly impossible to keep schools open for any length. So if - big if -they can change that.... — PolitiTweet.org

@zeynep We've been telling everyone that social distancing is one of the key pillars of pandemic defense for nearly a year. I don't think it can be walked back now without major blowback from teachers, parents, staff. — PolitiTweet.org

@zeynep Yeah I'm not arguing that the social distancing measures in schools are good or necessary - I really don't know (I do know my child *hates* them because it makes school feel more like detention). I am reasonably confident that changing them now would be a whole other shitstorm. — PolitiTweet.org

@zeynep I also do wonder if the social distancing in place (and, more controversially, the demography of who wants to attend school in NYC right now - weighted toward richer white families) contributes to the low transmission rates in schools. — PolitiTweet.org

@zeynep Under current arrangements, the more kids who want to attend class in person, the less capacity each school has to provide in-person class. It's crazy-making but there is a basic logic to it. — PolitiTweet.org

@zeynep But... one of the reasons that schools that are offering hybrid (at least in NYC) are doing a halfway version is because they can't bring all the students back fulltime and keep the social distancing measures they've been told to adhere to. — PolitiTweet.org
