I rode the DC metro for the first time a few years ago, and it was fine. I’m not a fan of CTA, but that’s largely attributable to Chicago’s miserable weather. The commies were smart enough to put Moscow’s metro way, way underground.

Or I suppose we could allow outdoor classes with masks and distancing. Not so great in Wisconsin’s winter, though.
We may have to open the fucking schools, but what you have presented isn’t anything like sufficient to convince me that it’s reasonably safe for adult relatives and contacts. And their contacts. And theirs.
