[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Wrong.  It is both.  The only reason that the adults are the "problem" is that they are the ones with a choice in the matter.  The adults absolutely should get vaxed.  But the shift to indoor schooling just as delta cases are exploding is also going to increase the spread, and also put kids at an increased risk.  How to balance that risk against the potential learning loss from not having school back to "normal" is a matter of debate.  But let's not pretend that both groups do not create challenges for containing delta.

The adults that can get a vax should get a vax.  For kids who need to be in congregate settings staring in the fall (which is almost all of them) we need to figure out ways to mitigate their risk.  The fact that parents are in the dark about school-specific plans less than a month before school starts is concerning.[/quote]

Although, apparently we are three weeks into delta, and other countries had delta peak in 6 weeks, so it's conceivable that our delta will peak before school opens (or at least shortly thereafter).  Fingers crossed![/quote]
We are less overall vaccinated than those countries.[/quote]
