[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There should be no consideration of dropping mask requirements in schools until after the winter holiday travel season. Case rates may be low in MoCo right now, but there’s still too many cases elsewhere in the US. It’s too likely that people will bring back cases from elsewhere. If by the end of January we are still as low as we are now, then let’s talk.[/quote]

I don't think we'll see a big bump from travel. Certainly hope not.

People traveled all summer, while Delta case rates were rising. Schools opened, and Delta/Covid rates keep falling nationally. Friends who are doctors, even my own kids' pediatrician, really thought we'd be lucky to keep school buildings open more than 4-6 weeks. They are still open. MoCo rates (and rates around the country ) have continued to go down.

I'm fine with masks continuing in schools for now. But at some point we need to all accept that this is now an endemic disease and will be with us for the duration.  [/quote]
