[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My DD is vaxed (more than 6 months out) but not boosted and had a close contact with a positive case today.  I will call the nurse on Monday but I can’t tell from the APS website how long she needs to quarantine. 5 days with negative PCR?  8 days after test on day 5? 14 days?  Thank you! [/quote]

Don't call the nurse. Just go to school.  These rules are likely changing before the end of the month with Youngkin and the new VDH.

The likelihood of her testing positive is less than 5%. Not worth it for her to miss school[/quote]

+1,000 If my kid is actually sick, then they won't go to school. Otherwise, they're going to school.

And I'm definitely not testing. We don't asymptomatically test people for the flu. We'll soon not be doing it for COVID too.

Next week you’ll wonder why so many teachers are out due to breakthrough cases…[/quote]

Are we really still calling them "breakthrough" cases at this point?  The vaccine (even with boosters) does not stop transmission.

Everyone's going to get COVID. According to the COVID ninnies, all the teachers have already gotten it already (for anyone who hasn't gotten it yet, your time is coming). Considering how extremely rare reinfections are, especially after vaccination, they'll be fine.
