[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The CDC team reviewed data from studies in the United States and abroad and found the experience in schools different from nursing homes and high-density worksites where rapid spread has occurred.

“The preponderance of available evidence from the fall school semester has been reassuring,” wrote three CDC researchers in a viewpoint piece published online Tuesday in the Journal of the American Medical Association. “There has been little evidence that schools have contributed meaningfully to increased community transmission.”

The only discussion we should be having now is how fast we should be opening.

I think you need to look for more accurate and more specific info.

Fairfax County's Percent Positivity (and Nova's PP) has been going down for weeks.  Fairfax's one day PP is 7.7%.   The 7-day percent positivity is currently at 10.4% but it's been on a downward trend.

Or you can just look directly at the same data FCPS is looking at (they probably don't need us to email it):

It is different than either of you are stating.[/quote]
