[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think it's interesting that the great demasking has caused 22207 to even out the demographics for covid affects on kids in APS.  Earlier in the pandemic, covid seemed to be hitting minorities and South Arlington the hardest.  But now between the travel and unmasking, it's hitting Yorktown, Jamestown, Discovery, Nottingham, etc. pretty hard.

Unless 22207 is just testing harder than everywhere else, as some here are suggesting.  I don't really understand that view, though.  If 22207 just has extra money to test, wouldn't they have been ubertesting all along and thus getting higher results this whole time, rather than just now over the last few months since unmasking?  Seems like the change factor here is the permissive unmasking, not testing.  ymmv.[/quote]

I’m in 22207. Everyone traveled for spring break. It was crazy how any people flew places. Certainly abnormal from pre-Covid times. Just at our school, we have multiple families in Texas, Hawaii, Arizona, Florida, Belize, Caribbean and Europe. My oldest’s Instagram was full of photos. Some families tested to get back in the country, and others tested to not expose others. But none are worried about the safety of their own kids! None of their kids are sick, even those they end up positive. We need to move on! People with seasonal allergies to pollen are doing much worse.[/quote]

I'm in 22207 and I know a lot of people with Covid right now. A LOT.
