[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Does this really mean that children under the age of 12 cannot travel outside of the DMV without quarantining for 7 days afterwards?  How is this not making the news?[/quote]

Correct. I've heard of a few parents hitting up Council members on this, but there really needs to be a more concerted effort to push back on it and also raise this with the media.

DC is throwing the doors open for tourists to come unvaccinated with no enforcement, but won't let children ride in a car to an Airbnb outside of MD or VA.

This is such a burden on working parents too. The mayor wants every to rush, rush, rush back the office to keep downtown businesses afloat, but no parent can go back to work full-time if they have to quarantine their kid for a week after travel.

It's also ridiculous because some parts of the US have even lower COVID rates than DC. And some people booked travel back when there was a list of states that were exempt like CA - you would think with the expectation that more states would be added to the low-risk list. But instead now ANY travel plans already made are subject to this 7 day quarantine rule.[/quote]

Unreasonable. I would not blame parents if they refrain from telling the truth and send their kids to school without quarantining. [/quote]
