White House press secretary Kayleigh McEnany on Friday once again affirmed the stance that students should return to classroom when the new school year begins, saying that schools are “essential places of business.”
During her press briefing, McEnany cited the newly-released Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) guidelines, which suggested that young children are not as likely to get infected or to spread the CCP virus to their teachers or family members. She emphasized that the CDC recommendations are based on the most updated data available.
