[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]For everyone saying we are being alarmist and you're sure there must be exceptions for pre-existing, chronic, etc., I have kids in two separate schools, elementary and middle. Principal updates sent out over the past hour contain the same information, word for word. There is no mention at all about any of that. Just says "any" of the following symptoms. And the only thing qualified with "new" is loss of taste or smell.

What morons. This is an absolute disaster for kids and their peers with headache problems, IBS, allergies.

Again, before everyone says alarmist, there is absolutely nothing about new/chronic, etc. being communicated. Nada. This is the guidance going to families and to school staff. So my child's migraines mean their class has to quarantine. Brilliant.[/quote]

Symptoms sent from my school include new onset severe headaches. It’s an imperfect communication in many ways and I am sure it will get updated. [/quote]

Interesting that it seems schools are communicating it differently. Maybe some are smart enough to add their own qualifying language because otherwise it is just preposterous. I've seen several word for word with no such mention of "new onset."  [/quote]
