If we start closing while schools and workplaces for a single possible infection, even just for a day or two, the disruption could be massive and chaotic.

Has to be done but people need to realize it's a possibility and plan for it.

1. Bothell High closed again Friday, awaits virus test results

BOTHELL — Tests were still pending Friday on the family member of a Bothell High School staffer whose mysterious illness led officials to keep the campus closed for a second day.

District leaders closed the school Thursday out of an abundance of caution, and it was not clear when classes would resume.

“I do not make this decision lightly,” Northshore School District Superintendent Michelle Reid wrote Thursday night in a letter to families.

“We recognize that Public Health Seattle-King County did not recommend closing Bothell High School as they believed the risk of the coronavirus exposure to students and staff is low,” Reid wrote. “They shared with me that in the end, it was my call. Because I heard ‘low risk’ and not ‘no risk,’ I feel it is my responsibility to extend the closure through Friday.”
