[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]From Kate Ryan from WTOP. If it's true that 1,000 students + staff are in quarantine, that's not a lot for a system with about 165K students and 25K staff. Of course, that number will go up with this new policy, though it sounds like some schools were already operating under these new guidelines before they sent it out this afternoon.

Even for only the first week of school?[/quote]

It’s a lot because most of the students 12+ and most of the staff are vaccinated and do not need to quarantine if exposed and not showing symptoms. This is primarily elementary school students. [/quote]

This is absurd when you can still get and spread covid.[/quote]

Just like you can still get injured in a car crash if you wear your seatbelt. Yet nobody says that seatbelts aren't effective.

Unvaccinated people are FIVE TIMES more likely to get infected than vaccinated people.[/quote]
