[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]K-2 lunch is 45 min, my child’s 2nd grade teacher confirmed, there will be a “floater” who will stand in the doorway and not mix with the cohort.[/quote]

You know what else is going to be floating? 50 micron droplets.

[quote]Linsey Marr, a civil and environmental engineering professor at Virginia Tech who studies the transmission of viruses in the air, said the five-minute window in which the student, identified in the study as “A,” was infected was notable because the droplet was large enough to carry a viral load, but small enough to travel 20 feet through the air.

“‘A’ had to get a large dose in just five minutes, provided by larger aerosols probably about 50 microns,” she said. “Large aerosols or small droplets overlapping in that gray area can transmit disease further than one or two meters [3.3 to 6.6 feet] if you have strong airflow.”[/quote]

But you know this already. As of tonight, Lafayette has sent out three case notifications in less than two weeks, and that out of how few tests? Enjoy preparing your kids' lunchboxes.[/quote]

I'm hopeful that the school is able to work out a solution for lunch, but just because a school has cases doesn't mean covid19 is spreading in schools.[/quote]
