[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]They should spend some of that federal money to purchase and distribute home tests for kids so they can test fast and get back to school the next day. [/quote]

Home tests will never be, and should never be, accepted. If we’ve learned anything in the past 18 months, it’s that nothing related to a pandemic can ever be left to the “honor system.”[/quote]

Got it. So do you want us to just take the PDF from an old test and update the dates and order ID? I guess that's cheaper and faster than paying for a test.[/quote]

You can haul your happy, lazy ass to a medical provider and get a new test which they will report as positive or negative and until then, your precious little darling can stay home.[/quote]

The thing about processes that involve voluntary compliance is that you need to come with a plausible argument why they’re better off complying rather than cheating. Or, at least, don’t heavily punish people that comply.  This whole plan tremendously incentives cheating, far more than if they actually followed CDC guidance.

Mcps is really, really bad at incentives.[/quote]
