[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We switched to a new daycare and started back at the beginning of July.  It’s been great.

Our old daycare finally just reopened and had a teacher test positive the second week.  I don’t think they did anything wrong, they had all the protocol in place, just unlucky.  So far no other staff or students there have tested positive (we still get their emails and speak to some families there).  But it is a good reminder that daycare is still risky.  I wouldn’t be surprised if there were lots of shut downs again as local cases go back up.[/quote]

In other words, if you don't mind the risk of Covid, sending kids to daycare is fine.[/quote]

I mean... that is the worst case scenario that one has to accept in sending kids back to group care. I have decided that is a risk I am willing to take because all of the information I have seen indicates that our family's most likely outcome from covid-19 infection would be asymptomatic or mild cases for the children and potentially unpleasant, but not life-threatening, cases for the adults. I'm taking all of the precautions to mitigate the risk otherwise because I'm not TRYING to get it, but in my own risk-benefit analysis daycare is worth it. If you are a person who for whatever reason does not want to take that risk then daycare is not for you right now.  [/quote]
