[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Schools need to do rapid testing. That would cut back on long term quarantining. [/quote] Can you clarify how rapid testing would cut down on long-term quarantining? Assuming an unvaccinated person is in close contact they have to quarantine for at least 7 days. I agree that schools need to do rapid testing but that's to identify infection. it doesn't seem like it would help reduce quarantining. [/quote] The rapid testing is part of a "test and stay" program; kids that are close contacts stay in school and do a rapid test daily. If they are negative they stay at school (thus reducing the quarantine). Here's Massachusetts' description of their school test-and-stay program: https://www.doe.mass.edu/covid19/testing/[/quote] And spread it for the first three days when they’re positive, but it’s too soon to test positive with Delta. :roll: [/quote]
