[quote=Anonymous][quote]I work at a peds urgent care in the area. Last shift I did about 15 covid tests as usual. The two that were positive- one kid with a runny nose and sneezing that I tested because he was in preschool but told parent likely allergies and advised OTC allergy meds, glad I tested him. The second was an elementary aged child who slept in late and was grumpy and had a headache in the morning but otherwise seemed fine, parent worked outside the home but child has been in virtual school and one outside the home extracurricular each week where there were no sick contacts. So, yes, very mild nothingburger symptoms in kids can absolutely be covid. Don't be dumb, get tested. DH works in the Children's ED and says they have actually seen an uptick in pediatric COVID cases in the last week. Schools!!![/quote] Not just schools. Also parents who are vaccinated and taking more risks. [/quote]
