Wisconsin is an example of what happens when you have a right wing dominated court that has no problem letting people die in order to pursue a partisan right wing agenda.

Conservatives on the Wisconsin Supreme Court have blocked a Dane County public health order requiring virtual instruction for children in grades third through 12, issuing their decision on a day when COVID-19 cases hit a new record high in the county.
The ruling was a victory for the coalition of private religious schools that challenged the order, who can now begin in-person instruction immediately.
But it was decried as a public health setback by Dane County Executive Joe Parisi.
"Tonight's decision by the Wisconsin Supreme Court will put kids and teachers back in group settings just as this pandemic hits a new peak in this community," Parisi said in a written statement.

Deliberately herding KIDS into a dangerous situation, for what? To appease some orange painted idiot so he won't tweet mean things at them? To 'own' the libs at the most of lives?
