[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Apparently the new “guidance” confirms what we’ve been hearing. If a child has “symptoms” associated with COVID (could be a runny nose) their close contacts (this has been interpreted as the entire class in many schools) are quarantined for ten days. This is completely ludicrous and not based in science or CDC guidelines.[/quote] Hey, way to wildly exaggerate the policy. Runny nose is not a symptom. 10 day quarantine is not required if you show a negative test. Basically, the policy is to get you to not send your sick kid to school, and if your kid is sick, to get a covid test to confirm what it is. I have no problem with that. That being said, I don't see why the rest of the class has to quarantine until the sick kid's family can show a negative test. [/quote]
