The school shutdowns and our CDC response to how we were going to handle children were largely driven by the teachers’ unions. I’ve written oversight letters in terms of communication between the CDC and our health agencies and the teachers’ unions, and I’ve gotten no response. So this was not driven by science. Remember how everybody was vilifying Sweden because they didn’t shut down their schools, their children went to school [and] didn’t wear masks?
