    Also

    On normal weekdays there was usually a quick ramp-up in electricity use from about 6 a.m. to 7:30. But now, Dr. Meinrenken said, with no commute to work or no need to get children ready for school, or both, the ramp-up is delayed. “People just seem to get up later,” he said.

    People all getting a break from the rat race.

    Anyway wile that douche Andrew Cuomo acts like he is all that on TV, NY is the worlds Coronavirus epicenter cause they refused to shut down when they KNEW the virus was already circulating fast.

    That guy is such a douche fake phony slick POS acting like he is all that saving the day all the time, no you are the biggest screw up that is why NY is hardest hit !!!

    The results speak for your "leadership" Andrew Coumo douche bag.

    Learn how starting school later can help adolescents get enough sleep and improve their health, academic performance, and quality of life.

    CDC website Schools Start Too Early

    The country's largest pediatrician organization joins those who want middle and high schools to start the school day at 8:30 a.m. or later.

    They have known for a long time how harmful it is but rat race tax farm we call "society" never cared much about children.

    Last year diabetes killed more than 350,000 people in the US, so lets give the children $10 to go out and buy some fries and a fizzy drink.?

    Corona 19, may infect children, but it is the restaurant pneumonia that kills people. Death from respiratory infections is more than 90% less likely to kill people under 18 than in any other age group.

    Therefore those who catch the virus, recover and spread their antibodies could end up saving hundreds of thousands of lives.
    The number who die will probably be lower than the number of children killed in road accidents over the same period.

    In India all the schools have been closed. I think this should be the case in NYC as well, where the coronavirus casualties are very high.

    The lockdown in India had also positive propaganda value in that it made everyone understand the gravity of the situation and educate himself or herself about the issue and act accordingly, to a large extent. Otherwise most people would have ignored the issue and casually flouted the rules on wearing masks and social distancing, going on with life as usual.
