Should I test my kid today or tomorrow morning?

Guess you’ve missed the numerous texts/ emails/ requests from MCPS to test your child before they return from Spring Break?

This. No interest in testing my asymptomatic kids. This is insane. We’ll pass, thanks. I’ll test my kids if/when they have symptoms.

I didn’t receive a single email about this, and I just double checked my spam. I even got an email from the principal about this weeks event but no mention of testing. I used to get emails so I don’t know why suddenly it stopped but you can’t enforce something like this if people slip through the cracks.

Oops, I do recall seeing an email about this but forgot this morning. Oh well!

So, you are sending your Covid sick kids to school. What is wrong with you!

Same. DH and I are boosted, our elementary kids are vaccinated. If they develop symptoms, we’ll test them, but if not? Nope.

Most people aren't going to test. The families that do are probably already sheltering in place and/or triple-masking. This is a pretty meaningless request.

What makes you think my kids have Covid? You are welcome to keep sticking a swab up your kids nose every week, but I have zero interest in doing so. No good reason for MCPS asking everyone to test kids who have no symptoms.

Nope. Try again. Or maybe I’m just secure in my liberalism, so I don’t worry about people misinterpreting my actions.

I know and when the test comes back positive it could be just a mistake and I'd have to arrange for childcare which is super-inconvenient. That's why I'm against all this testing.

People like you are the reason the rest of us now need to keep our kids home for two weeks after spring break.

Well, I guess telling the truth by signing it with fringe right-wing astroturfer isn't that convincing.

We tested. We went overseas for spring break and although we did wear masks, we had a lot of exposure. The schools asked us to test and it is the right thing to do.
