At least two students attending Miami-Dade County Public Schools have tested positive for COVID-19 in the first week that schools reopened to accommodate students who prefer in-person learning.

A school district spokeswoman confirmed multiple positive cases in an email to the Herald at 10:21 p.m. She said the impacted schools and individuals have been notified, but that the district’s COVID-19 dashboard would not be updated until Friday morning.

“It was almost inevitable that as we reopened schools [that] some of these cases would happen,” Superintendent Alberto Carvalho said in a video that the district sent to the Herald on Thursday, begging parents to not send sick children to school and to complete a self-screening assessment at home.

By Thursday evening, a spokeswoman with the United Teachers of Dade said the union confirmed six schools, possibly seven, with positive COVID-19 cases. One of those schools has four cases among students and staff.

1. It's apparent to me that human/herd stupidity makes it certainly inevitable that there will

continue to be unnecessary loss of life with all the attendant trauma that entails until kind
people take control and do what's best for us all.
