0:54Now PlayingThe U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention will release its detailed guidance Friday on how to safely reopen more schools, a White House adviser said.
The long-awaited guidance will be the most detailed federal road map yet, and officials have telegraphed that it will recommend a mix of measures -- masks, social distancing, better ventilation and possibly vaccine priority for educators, but not a requirement.
Andy Slavitt, a Covid adviser to President Joe Biden, told MSNBC on Thursday morning that the CDC guidance will be rolled out Friday.
“There’s no debate over whether to open schools here, there’s a debate over how, and if it were as simple as ‘open all the schools,’ they’d all be open now,” Slavitt said. “There are schools that have done it safely and there are schools that have done it not as safely.”
The issue has threatened to pin Biden between core policy goals -- his pledge to follow science, his push to reopen schools and his pledged loyalty to teachers.
