[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don’t understand why schools with high COVID case rates aren’t implementing universal masking. Seriously, WTF. Our school has over 5 percent and only a few impacted classes are masking. I have a vulnerable kid and a newborn at home. I don’t understand why we have a known, simple, low cost public health tool that can protect kids and families, reduce learning loss, keep people healthy, and reduce health care costs that is not being employed. Who can we advocate to about this ridiculousness? I don’t want COVID ripping through my family and don’t understand why the schools aren’t doing this? [/quote]

OP we have a vulnerable family like yours and the VA has been really great for us. I knew last summer I couldn’t trust MCPS to keep my family safe.  Just something to consider for next year. I know of other families who have pulled their kid at lunch and had them wear a KN95 at all other times and it seems to be ok for them so far.  They say that even when masking was required the compliance and quality of masks really varied.[/quote]
