Between the union and the school board and the School District, it feels like from those those other entities, and i want to say that the purpose of this meeting was to figure out how the city can best support families and the School District and educators. Because i agree with the comments of Susan Sullivan that the caste that the educators have in front of them is so monumental. And it is difficult to roll out distance teaching and learning, which is what you are doing, and also at the same time to simultaneously provide for the needs of families to do what needs to be done in households to make that education work and meaningful. So what i see the role of the city is and i want to take my at off to maria sue and her staff and the mayor who stepped up and are trying to play a useful role in in the in one area of where families need help.

Fauci and others wanted to and dr. Fauci was very nice. He said President Trump made a great decision. We would have far more than that. But maybe even more importantly, if i didnt close up, we would have instead of the number that you mentioned or whatever it may be, were at about 180 . If we would have, perhaps, 1. 5 or 2 Million Deaths right now if i went a different direction, which some people wanted me to do, and i decided not to do it. Wed have 2 Million Deaths. Now, a lot of countries dont report their deaths. Obviously, chinas not reporting because they had far more than we did. China had far more deaths than we did, in my opinion. Its just my opinion. But they dont report their deaths or they dont report them accurately. I dont want to embarrass other c
