[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The flu, food poisoning, and countless other ailments that are usually mild can be fatal for some people, but we don't test for them or require masks or isolation or other extreme measures. Covid still has the boogeyman effect for many people even though it's no more or less dangerous now than many other illnesses.[/quote] If I could test for norovirus vs. food poisoning if my kids have messy stomach issues, I definitely would, because that would impact how we manage treatment and isolation. If it's not contagious I'm not going to worry about spread. If it's highly contagious I'm going to be very careful about keeping the sick kid away from the others. Not sure why this is hard to understand. [/quote]
