How soon do you predict it will happen? We all know it’s inevitable. With Delta and lambda or Whatever next Funkin “variant” and the end of summer we know that cases will soar and well be back to square one |
They won’t. |
What's the first day of school?
That + 15 days. |
It’s literally unlawful. They won’t unless ordered to. |
Would sending teachers and students to die in death camps would be considered unlawful? |
I assume we are planning a process similar to the one Fairfax published, which is to quarantine classes if there is extensive spread, and only quarantine (and go DL) with entire schools or the district if ordered by the health department. Which seems like a reasonable system. THere's no need to quarantine classes or schools with few cases. |
This. It will be by class or by individual school, and only for enough weeks to clear the outbreak. VA law allows nothing more. |
Tell that who SC Who doesn’t even have a mask mandate but just close down schools for two weeks in Charleston Area. |
Lambda is a big nothing, just like the UK variant was here. |
Dramatic much? Geez....get a friggin grip lady. |
Can you read at all? Isolated closures are allowed to contain outbreaks. Countywide virtual school indefinitely is no longer allowed. |
There are classes in quarantine right now. I hope the effort works to contain the spread. |
Only because it was the teacher who tested positive. Had it been a student, only the students nearby would have had to quarantine. Hope the teacher was vaccinated and this is a breakthrough case because if not that is totally irresponsible of her. So glad it will be required as of 10/31. |
HUGE EYEROLL. These histrionics don't work anymore. I guess it doesnt matter to you how incredibly damaging distance learning was to children (especially poor children) last year. |
Covid is not a death sentence. Did you feel this way about the flu??? Seriously think about it. 188 kids died of the flu in the U.S. in the 2019 flu season. Covid has killed 388 kids. Yes, twice as much - but far from marching kids to death camps. Yes, it is TWICE as lethal to kids but still a very small number. Do I want my kids to get it, not until they are vaccinated because I do worry about long haul effects. The odds are that my kids would have sicker with the flu than that of covid. So the anxiety that you are feeling is not supported by facts. Covid is serious. We want everyone to be vaccinated so that it won't kill them. Shockingly, those that are vaccinated are not dying (small percentage) or ending up in the hospital. So vaccines work. Eventually we will all get covid - it is NOT going away ever. We just want everyone to be vaccinated so we don't have so many people die from it. The high numbers getting covid, ending up in the hosptial, and dying chose to not be vaccinated. Within a few months the number of cases will drop dramatically just like it did in the UK. |
