[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Is there data to support this? I can’t seem to find when doing an internet search. Do school systems that test all students weekly do better on COVID than those that don’t? Does testing 100% or 10% each week make school safer? Or does it make parents “feel” safer? [/quote] Depends on what you mean by “do better.” Schools that are doing regular weekly testing will find more asymptomatic infections. I can’t cite any data but, yes, that feels safer. Finding more asymptomatic infections means more quarantines but, hopefully, less actual spread. I’d like to see any data on this as well. IMO, doing best would be more testing and 100% vaccination of all who are eligible. [/quote]
