The charts above are from the Kaiser Family Foundation Poll -- done between July 14th and 19th of a national sample of 1,313 adults, with a 3 point margin of error.
Donald Trump and the Republicans want to reopen the schools in the United States, and Trump has even threatened to cut funding for schools that don't reopen. They know that reopening the schools is critical to getting parents back to work -- and they value the economy over the health and lives of American citizens.
But the American public disagrees. They want the virus under control before sending their students back into what could be very dangerous schools. About 60% say we have yet to see the worst from the virus, and 63% say it would be better to delay the school openings. They are worried about the safety of both students and teachers, and they fear students will bring the virus home to their families.
They are right!
