[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There is no way they will make vaccinated students quarantine. They are not going to do anything to increase quarantines. If my vaccinated kids had to quarantine with every exposure they would be at home more than in school.[/quote]

Is sometime talking about increasing quarantines?

How many times have you been notified of a close contact? Just curious. We haven’t had any but our DS is in ES and the school itself hasn’t had many cases.[/quote]

DP but my 12 and 15 year old have been close contacts. Vaccinated early September. Returned right away both times. So under new guidelines they’d have to quarantine for 5 days because they don’t have booster. No thanks. [/quote]

With the new variant, those two vaccines aren’t going to protect them much from infection, so it makes sense.[/quote]

The booster isn’t stopping transmission either. Look at the health forum, most people sick with it have had booster. [/quote]

The booster has prevented the majority of people from being hospitalized. Most the people I know who have had COVID in the past few weeks have had symptoms similar to a mild flu or cold. So you can get sick and pass it on but the length on time you are contagious is shorter and the severity is less. So people with the booster will get more sick but it is a smaller percentage.

The unvaccinated are not as lucky.[/quote]

Very true for unvaccinated. But this is the difference in quarantine for vaccinated kids who can’t have the booster yet. Not really fair to them. Or anyone who “did their part” and got vaccinated but not comfortable with booster. [/quote]
