[quote=Anonymous]I agree that there may not be a complete shift to distance learning as a result of Delta.

But what may happen is that spread may be fueled by indoor unmasked eating,  unvaccinated barely masked middle and high schoolers transitioning among classes, unvaccinated indifferently masked middle and high schoolers and middle schoolers sitting thirty in a classroom.  Especially since many of these high school and middle school students will be traveling to and from school by public transportation.

Minimal contact tracing and asymptomatic testing won’t help brake the spread.

Anyway, it’s one thing to say we’ve got to get kids back to school.  But when we minimize the need for safety measures, we may be setting the stage for the whole “Back to school” undertaking to collapse, one quarantine case at a time.  Then another.

Anyway, as a DCUM poster on another thread memorable observed:   I suspect we’ll find out soon enough how Corona Delta  defines “close contact.” Hopefully, Corona Delta can’t  be bothered to transmit itself to a new host more than three feet away (if possible).

My child is vaccinated, and I don’t have a job, so I can hold up my end, come what may.[/quote]
