@black3dynamite sick students must stay home.... how do they determine who is sick? Testing is not free, at least not here. Who is determining if they are sick?

According to the School Reopening Requirements Template document, it depends on the school and parents.

The thing is, of your kids are sick, it's most likely not Covid19.

I personally don't care if it's Covid-19, Flu or the common cold, if you're sick, keep it to yourself/family. The rampant spread of illness is absolutely insane and Covid-19 simply put a spotlight on the issue.
Wash your hands ffs.

Sure, but probably good that sick kids aren't put into schools anyway. Schools, ignoring COVID19, have always been petri dishes and spread disease in communities like crazy (one of the many reasons I think that they are terrible ideas and always have) and since schools are paid based on attendance, they have long had policies to require kids stay in school when sick. Making all the other kids sick. If we made all the kids stay home when sick, regardless of what it is, it could have a huge positive impact on the school system in general.

Yeah for sure. But this is all in regards to COVID-19, and since.

In theory, but healthy kids (and teachers) are less likely to get COVID as well. It's a win/win.

The thing is, of your kids are sick, it's most likely not Covid19.
And even if it is Covid-19, most kids won't even notice they have it. They could have a small cough or 1 day of low grade fever. Or no symptoms at all.

Death is a non-symptom, for sure.

Very important fact written on this article.
"A 13-year-old girl with an autoimmune disease living with her family on post at Ft. Still in Lawton is the first child to have died from COVID-19 in Oklahoma. "
One can question if she would have still passed if she contracted another sickness due to the underlining disease she already had. I know my friend was infected, and his 9 year old daughter had low grade fever for 1 day, and that was it. His other 2 kids who are bubble gum with his daughter didn't have anything, which means they were either asymptomatic or didn't even get infected.

You seem super focused on the individual, and not the masses. There's nothing wrong with that. But it's definitely important to look at the big picture too.
If you solely focus on a single death, there would never be an uprising against oppression, etc.

All illnesses have the random person with non-normal reactions to the illness, that yes, can include death.
We don't shut down everything because an otherwise healthy person dies from the flu.
We don't ban jogging because a healthy person dies while jogging.

New South Wales erosion: Huge swells leave homes at risk of collapse
Huge waves have pummelled the Australian state of New South Wales, eroding some coastal areas and putting homes at risk of collapse.
In beach suburbs to the north of Sydney, residents lost decks and fences as the surf lapped at the edge of properties. Authorities say they have recorded waves as high as 11m (36ft) this week off the city's coastline. The wild surf has been caused by a strong low pressure system. On Friday, the Bureau of Meteorology (Bom) re-issued a "hazardous" surf warning for the state's entire 2,100km (1,300-mile) coastline. -
