I don’t think anyone wants DL. They just want information on how things will be handled if wide swathes of the school population become sick .

This! Hope for the best and plan for the worst. Everyone but psychopaths wants this to work. But if it doesn’t? Then what? FCPS being so awesome at reacting to unforeseen circumstances (/s).

So you're asking them to plan for unforeseen circumstances? Alien abduction? Meteor hitting a school? Pretty sure they can only plan for the foreseen circumstances.

Guess you never heard of “emergency planning.” I hope you aren’t responsible for young children.

+1 I had my oldest just after 9/11. My office and his daycare were not near my house. I had a plastic tub with a couple changes of clothes, blankets, extra diapers and wipes, powdered formula, sterile water, clean bottles, walking shoes, a baby bjorn and an emergency backpack in my trunk his first year. I mean, do you want to be stuck on the other side of the Bridge with an infant? 18 year later, I keep two days worth of my medication in my purse.

If aliens abducted us, at least I could keep my kid fed and clean for a couple of days.

Sh*t happen. Large organizations are supposed to have contingency plans.

The contingency plan is to go back to virtual. Any adult who has lived in FCPS during a pandemic knows that's the plan, even if they're not telling us. Prepare for that!

What the contingency plan for a teacher? An upper level student?

If a teachers get COVID or needs to quarantine? They get a sub.

Teachers should be vaccinated and vaccinated people don’t need to quarantine.

Have you read the news the past week? Delta is a whole different ball game.

Well in Virginia, according to the VDH 99.24% of COVID cases are in people not fully vaccinated. So it’s not that different of a ball game, it’s just that people are reading too much into misleading headlines.

So vaccinated people do need to quarantine? I’m confused.

According to FCPS if they are a close contact and vaccinated then they do not need a quarantine, I think the exception to that role is if they actually test positive for COVID.

Sigh.

Ok. Thanks. I was confused by the "whole different ballgame" post.

Here are my worries as a vaccinated teacher, in order of decreasing priority:


1. My unvaccinated kids will get covid and suffer serious illness
2. I will get long covid and have memory problems
3. I will be laid up for more than a week (I haven’t missed a day of work since 2018).

Maybe FCPS should consider purchasing and mandating KN94 masks?

If you move the date range to something more reasonable such as mid-May to current, it drops to about 97%. The creative use of counting from Jan 21 (website default) is more than a bit misleading when that represents the earliest anyone could have been fully vaccinated and not even 1% of people were fully vaccinated by then. The middle of May is a much more accurate reflection because early to mid April is when vaccines became more widely available.

The vaccine is still worth getting. However after knowing 3 fully vaccinated people catch covid within the past 2 weeks, including 1 who passed it on to a friend, people need to realize the vaccine isn't some perfect shield that will prevent you from catching or passing on the virus. Mask up indoors when you can and get tested even if you have mild symptoms. Also for the "kids don't catch and spread it" crowd, my cousin's 5yo just brought it home from daycare and passed it on to the family. The parents weren't vaccinated, so I have no clue if the kids were wearing masks at daycare.

Aren’t those difficult to wear all day? There were times last spring (reading aloud to the class) I thought wearing my “regular” mask became difficult.

I’m going to preface this by stating this is not a challenge, but rather a genuine question. How sick did the vaccinated become after contracting Covid?

My DH strongly prefers these to cloth masks to wear all day, and he’s been wearing them daily for 8-10 hours a day for months now. The only reason I don’t love them is that they don’t fit my face well but I think I have an anatomically weird (kid-size) face.

My fully-vaxxed family member died yesterday from covid. The illness is typically less severe with vaccinated, but not always.

Well sure, it’s possible. I’m wondering about the cases the PP mentioned.

It’s interesting to me that the PP knows 3 people who have caught Covid in the past 2 weeks. My DW and I were just saying between the two of us we can count on one hand the number of people we know of (acquaintances) who have tested positive in the past 16 months.

[Anonymous]

This is another school district in Virginia. They have a mask mandate. Parents are concerned at how the school district is communicating positive cases in the schools. They have a 50% of their population fully vaccinated, slightly below Fairfax County’s 55% fully vaccinated.
