We've identified these five key focus areas that will indicate whether it’s safe to move forward with full, in-person school. I want RIers to have confidence that we will not reopen unless we’re sure we’ve done everything to make it as safe as possible. https://t.co/R6JVwTyQ2k — PolitiTweet.org

We’re relying on you to keep your social groups small. If people keep gathering in bars in large groups, without proper social distancing, we will need to reimpose stricter measures across-the-board. I hope it doesn’t come to that. — PolitiTweet.org

Our percent positive rate among 20-to-29-year-olds is significantly higher than the overall rate. This isn’t because they’re more susceptible to the virus. It’s because too many young people aren’t following the rules. — PolitiTweet.org
