[quote=Anonymous]Since late August/September, how many times has your child been sick with a cold, flu, or other contagious illness?

We're on illness number three here, and I can't help feeling like we're playing Russian roulette and the odds keep getting worse as we get further into winter. I mean, we're barely into flu season.

I must have had a false sense of security with all of the health precautions our school implemented. I just read on CDC's website that they don't recommend daily symptom checks because they are ineffective. I think the stat said something like, less than half of COVID cases are caught this way due to asymptomatic and pre-symptommatic kids/teachers.

I know some people have had their kids in daycare since March and it's been fine. However, the cases are expected to increase SO much by Jan/Feb, it dwarfs the cases from last Spring/Summer, even assuming testing scarcity suppressed numbers. I don't have any solutions, and we need daycare. Just frustrated at how much viruses are still circulating in a clean and careful environment.

Anyone else growing concerned?[/quote]
