[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Actual articles about delta in kids, that might help cut through the delta hysteria:

Oh, great, yes, let's link to your personal blog of editorials and reassuring out-of-date BS. [/quote]

Out of date? Clearly you are just rejecting things out of hand. This was published less than one week ago. I am sure you didn't read it.

You have a habit of rejecting reality and substituting your own.[/quote]

There is zero chance that officials are going to let Delta run wild through schools with under 12 kids. There will be quarantines, so maybe we should prepare a virtual option to keep those children engaged while out? I have no idea why that is controversial. Even Mississippi is already doing it.

Mississippi has much lower vaccination rates and thus more adults at risk.[/quote]

Do you really think they are going to not quarantine if we have outbreak here?[/quote]

Oh, I think think they will quarantine kids, more than necessary. But Mississippi is not a good comparison because their situation is completely different in terms of community risk. Also, a single positive test is not an “outbreak”. It can obviously turn into one, but what they should do is handle the situation with daily rapid testing of everyone in the classroom for a week, not send everyone home for two weeks. Sadly, I think DCPS is incapable of such an innovative and sensible approach.[/quote]

Got it. Given the travel quarantine periods in the other thread, I think that is more than likely so I agree on that point. [/quote]
