No, this variant is just that contagious. I always wear a mask indoors. Always. And I only wear ASTM level 3 certified surgical masks that have saved me countless times as a teacher with very close exposure to positive kids. This variant got me, and I’m pretty sick right now with a fever and every other symptom despite 3 vaccines and prior infection with the January Omicron.

I have not left my house in a few weeks. Family is really just outdoors except a few very quick in and out stores. I was shocked when my spouse said they were positive and then I tested positive as I’ve barely even left my bed. Extremely contagious as we are as careful as they come.

We have no restrictions

If you take a sick day from work bc you have a cold is your work requiring you submit proof of negative test before you return to work? No adult I know has to do this. If you are an adult, it is up to you if you want to test or not. You have the ability to stay home for a day or two, not test then come back the day you are feeling better, maybe you had/have covid, maybe not. As an adult, if you feel heathy you are expected to be at work and no one is asking otherwise. No one is regulating adults in the workplace the way we are regulating kids at school and at camps. At least last school year they couldn’t. Every sniffle required a covid negative confirmation.

That is not a restriction that is a precaution. Even a cold generally does not last a day. Work should ask for a negative test. Good for them.

Literally no one is asking for a negative test. Not school or work.

Nearly every summer camp did this summer. Lots of kids missed out on summer camp of symptomatic covid or being a close contact and the camp not allowing them to attend.

Good. The one camp we went to did not but it’s the right thing to do.

Agree they are making it mostly up.

Same. I have a bunch of plans that I don’t want to cancel. Still worth masking to avoid catching it.

Daycares and preschools are. Which, I honestly don't even care mind personally, but understand it is a huge burden for some.

We are limiting activities 2 weeks before camp. My kids love to go and they chose to be safe before camp so they wouldn’t miss it.

Sadly if people cannot self regulate and will send in kids exposed or sick, it’s necessary.

We are just in one activity and just got Covid. No friends, no family, no nothing and still got it.

Yes, you caught it from taking your kid unmasked to an indoor activity. That's what happens, PP.

None of the camps my kids have done. I even kept DD home one day, and they did not require anything for her to return.

No, my kids have not been indoors. They were unmasked outdoors only. Good try. I don’t bring my kids indoors anywhere and on the rare occasion they wear n95.

Sadly, no. I am not. My kids have not been indoors anywhere since activities ended in May. School was online. They have not been anywhere indoors and my spouse only went the pharmacy and carry out. So, the only place my spouse or kids could have gotten it was outdoors/close contact as many are turning up positive from emails. I have not been out of the house for several weeks.

Your DH has some secrets. A few quickies, for sure.

Maybe but not sure when he’d have the opportunity given he’s mostly home or with the kids.
