[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Remember how last year people were pointing at private schools offering more in-person instruction and saying APS should follow their lead? [/quote]

Yup. Look at all of those private schools looking at going virtual now.

Yep, private schools doing surveillance testing, and going virtual over 30 asymptomatic cases.  Don't let that be APS!  Don't sign up for surveillance testing.[/quote]

So, just have the 30 cases spread, let it run rampant, infect family members, and then what?[/quote]

Yes, 30 ASYMPTOMATIC cases, absolutely that is MUCH better than locking healthy kids out of school.

Expecting Zero COVID in school is like expecting Zero COVID in society - absolutely impossible. Do we have 0 flu in schools?  0 colds?

As for adult family members, they've had the chance to get vaccinated for a year now.  And kids less than 5 are at less risk with COVID than the flu. Are you afraid of your child riding in a car, even in a car seat with air bags (more risk than COVID)?

COVID will be here forever.  Everyone will be exposed repeatedly to COVID the rest of their lives. Locking healthy kids out of schools is absurd, whereas adults in society aren't subject to such surveillance testing.[/quote]
