COMMENT: social distancing measure

Submitted by Miriam Reynolds on 12/4/07 8:13 AM

When we begin to close schools and daycare centers, we need to also plan for what to do with the children. If we want to ensure minimal interruption of the workforce, then we need to also provide an alternative to schools and daycare centers. If left up to families to do their own planning, is it feasible that no planning will take place and at least one worker will stay home to care for the out-of-school or daycare children.
