"Recently, we issued our overall guidelines for reopening schools and what this is a series of additional resource documents and consideration documents to really help put some more granular detail to how administrators and parents can begin to think about operating and putting those guidelines into a practice plan," Redfield said.
The CDC director continued: "They’re all put out with the intent to help facilitate, as was mentioned earlier, the reopening of schools for face-to-face learning. They’re not really put out there to be a rationale to somehow keep schools closed. But again, we're prepared to work with each jurisdiction."
