'They’re going to get over it': Missouri Gov. insists kids must go back to school even though 'they will' get COVID-19.

WASHINGTON – Missouri Governor Mike Parson, a Republican, downplayed the risk for children who may contract the coronavirus from classrooms during school reopenings, insisting “they’re going to get over it.”.

“These kids have got to get back to school,” Parson said in an interview Friday with radio host Marc Cox on KFTK.
