My kiddo has 100% of the symptoms but because they are mild and no one else we know with symptoms has been able to get tested (so no way to id we have been in contact with someone that is positive) no testing..

Would you like to name the school your child attended?

Positive at our DCPS just announced by principal. But they won’t give any more info - they claim that the Dept of Health says there is no contact risk for the school. Which is obviously wrong - if the child was in class Friday and tested positive on Thursday, they were likely contagious in school. This country is a freakin’ joke.

Me too, but I wouldn't have called the symptoms mild (though not hospital worthy).

You gotta blame someone, right? Either way, y'all mofos would have complained no matter what Bowser decided.

The buck stops with her. That’s the reality. She’s making the decisions, both good and bad, and sometimes events overtake because there was no decision at all.

Children’s Hospitsl has testing capabilities, however, the patient must meet one of three sets of criteria.

They were late closing. We quit going a few days early because the experts were quite clear that school should have already closed.

Strict testing criteria equals limited testing.

The lucky ones will be those who get it early and recover. They'll have immunity and can go about their business.

If I'm correct, Childrens is setting up a testing station in the lower parking lot at Trinity. They have a van and 3-4 tents, and cone-d drive through ready to do.

Do you know where to find that information for March 18th? I can't find it.
