What's with all the positive Covid cases in staff at Williamsburg?

Anonymous
There has been 1 staff positive report per day for the last four days -- I wonder whether this is 4 different staff members or just one person misunderstanding the reporting requirement and reporting in sick every day.

It’s one person. At least according to WMS staff members as of yesterday.

Meanwhile AEM is freaking out. There have been no kids identified as close contacts. Meanwhile Carlin Springs continues to have student cases and handfuls of close contacts and not a word on AEM. (I"m not suggesting its worth discussion, its just bonkers what riles them up).

They only care about Carlin springs when it suits their agenda.

Uh, not really. That thread has been pretty quiet since the number of teachers with positive tests went down from 6 to 3. All that's happened in there since then is someone noted the new staff positive this morning.

Seems to me like Carlin Springs is doing everything right -- accurately reporting all of its positive cases (and not more than that!) and then going through and contacting all the people who have been in contact with them so that those people can report themselves as close contacts.

Meanwhile, Williamsburg has had either 1 or 4 staff members reporting as positive (depending on whether it's reporting those accurately) and 2 student cases and no close contacts at all (even though someone here said that some 7th grade classes were being told to stay home). That would suggest that there were some close contacts there, but so far nada has been reported for close contacts on the dashboard, which just seems wrong.

That being said, nothing is wrong at Williamsburg. Everything there is fine and anyone who suggests otherwise is a poopyhead.

Having no close contacts does not mean that Williamsburg is not doing things correctly, it means that there were literally no close contacts. Because they are reported positive does not mean that they were in school when they found out they were positive. (I personally know of individuals who were exposed by a nanny and another family exposed through sports recently). Same for the staff if they are not in contact with students. The assumptions being made are pretty wild.

It’s unwise to come to the conclusion that something is wrong based on rumors and speculation.

Does she even have a child in person at any school or is she just super invested at this point?

Okay, but the student who tested positive for Covid yesterday was a Thursday/Friday student and unless they didn't show up for school last week they would have been in class during the incubating period of the disease, 6 or 7 days before they tested positive. Shouldn't they have had close contacts from that week (as the Carlin Springs classes with positive cases are showing)? Or does your contact with a student not count unless it occurred after that student tested positive? That seems weird, but okay.

By the way, there is only now one student showing as having tested positive at Williamsburg. So where the original reports were showing 7 staff members and 2 students as having tested positive for Covid, the current reports reduce all of that down to one student testing positive for Covid. One positive case out of all of that, lol!

I think there may be a misunderstanding about what these reports reflect. My understanding is that these are based on the reports provided through the Daily Symptom Screener. If a student's positive test was reported to APS on Thursday, none of the students who might have been close contacts (if any) would be notified of that until Thursday at the earliest, which means none of those families would be able to report their children as being close contacts until today at the earliest. No one could have known last week that one of their classmates was going to test positive a week later, so of course there are no close contact reports from last week.
