I hate to tell you, but as somebody from rural America, there are going to be so many uncounted deaths during this pandemic. Poor Americans are taught not to get medical care, are riddled with preexisting conditions, and local journalism has been absolutely destroyed.

The State Board of Education has just given the Commissoner the authority to grant exemptions to the school start date for the coming year. #moschoolboards
