"If my kid has a cold, I'll just lie and say they had a two-day dentist's appointment."

Brilliant. Much easier than testing them during that two days and confirming it's *actually a cold* and not COVID.

And don't tell me all the people who are planning on lying on this thread are people for whom getting a test at CVS would be an extreme hardship. In addition to the fact that actual working class or poor people are a tiny percentage of the demographic at DCUM, these ridiculous commenters are *already* saying they'd be keeping their kids home, so it's not really more time lost.

Just denial and showing their a$$ just to show it. With Bonus! Potentially endangering others!

"I've already been inconvenienced enough by this global pandemic! WHY WON'T SOMEONE THINK OF ME HAVING TO SPEND ABOUT 2 HOURS OUT OF MY DAY WHEN MY KID IS ALREADY HOME TO ACTUALLY HELP REDUCE IT'S SPREAD??"

And then what do you think will happen, if you lie? If it's COVID or even just a cold and you send the kid, the child will likely get others in their class sick, and since most parents actually give a sh!t-- or at least the kids will be witnessed by teachers!-- your kid's whole class will be quarantined anyway.

Y'all are objecting and twisting yourselves into knots to come up with ridiculous workarounds when the simplest solution is also the safest-- get your kid tested.

(Or get a doctor's note if they truly have a chronic condition).  [/quote]
