[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My DD has allergies (as in, she sees an allergist, has gotten the battery of tests) and if she forgets her meds for a day can wake up stuffy and sniffling.  But we test her every time before sending her to school.  The tests are free.  I don't worry about her getting covid.  I worry about sending her to school and infecting a classmate who lives with an elderly relative.  It's easy to test.  [/quote]

+1. My kid also has seasonal allergies, which have been terrible this year. We tested (multiple times) to be on safe side with all negative tests. Went to pediatrician and then to allergist for a new scratch test. Severe allergies to multiple tree pollens. DC has had continuous cough, eye irritation and headache since March. I don't know how many COVID tests we've had but DC is now on daily allergy meds which also don't seem to help.

I don't know if allergies have just been seriously bad this year or if there's a compounding issue with colds, etc. I appreciate your words, OP. To all the other PPs who can't be bothered, it's not that difficult to be a responsible parent. I wish most parents would make more effort. We've had 30+ new COVID cases at our ES and DD's MS has sent multiple emails re: breakouts in school. All because parents can't be arsed. Shame. [/quote]
