The majority of COVID-19 cases are at schools. Shut them down until it's safe.

Petition Details

COVID-19 cases are rising, majority of them being at schools. Shut schools down until it's safe to reopen them.

Additional Information

Thousands of people will become critically ill & cases won't stop rising if schools are left open. Children (especially young children) bring the virus home and could possibly infect vulnerable adults, or even they themselves could become seriously ill. We need to prevent this as soon as possible by closing schools.
