After weeks of the Trump administration publicly demanding schools reopen, U.S. health officials this week pressed a new message for the American public: Get your virus levels under control and you can keep kids in classrooms.

Dr. Anthony Fauci, the nation's top infectious disease expert, echoed that message this week by noting that if an area is in a"red zone" -- meaning the percentage of tests that come back positive exceed 10% -- that's makes reopening a school difficult. And letting the virus spread unchecked would result in a devastating death toll because so many American adults have underlying health conditions, including those tied to obesity, he warned.

The CDC study on Rhode Island day care centers released Friday found that strict containment measures helped to stop the spread of the virus. But even with those measures in place, the amount of virus in the community mattered. The more virus in the community, the harder it was to contain.In this Aug. 17, 2020, file photo, Cimmie Hunter, left, and Cadence Ludlow, both 6th graders, arrive at Liberty Elementary School during the first day of class in Murray, Utah.
