TL;DR Summary

Marcus Garvey Academy in Detroit, where a kindergartner died and dozens of others fell ill with "mysterious flu-like illnesses," has reopened despite the lack of a confirmed cause of the outbreak. The Detroit Public Schools Community District and the Detroit Health Department have been criticized for their inadequate response to the crisis, including a lack of transparency and systematic testing. The absence of the word "COVID-19" from official statements and news reports has been seen as a political calculation to downplay the ongoing threat of the pandemic. Parents and educators are demanding full transparency, systematic testing, and a safe return to school.
