[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The things that experts are recommending for the < 12s in relation to delta are: 1) vaccination of anyone around kids (focused largely on parents and other family, but easily this includes the school workforce, daycares, etc) 2) masks in schools 3) hand washing 4) ventilation in schools No one is suggesting that schools close, because there are higher risks to schools closing to kids. To me what I'd push for in terms of policy that is actually under the government's control, is school workforce vaccination, as that probably goes the furthest in protecting kids. At least in DC we have mandated masking already, so that's not the political fight. [/quote] They’re also recommending asymptomatic testing, which in modeling showed a 20% drop in transmission. So of those five things, DCPS is doing one? Two? Will the bathrooms have soap this year? Does hand washing even matter at this point?[/quote]
