However, after reviewing Corona's condition on Thursday evening, the government realized that opening schools in the current situation would be enough to play a game with children's lives. On the other hand, various guardians' associations in the state also announced a school closure on the 23rd and fought against the government's decision, which eventually forced the government to back down.
From the very beginning, the parents were angry about starting school:
