[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Just received word that my kid was exposed to covid at outdoor summer camp. Problem is that the kids go inside to eat lunch. The kid that tested positive has been at camp all week and tested positive today. So frustrated with his parents for sending him sick. This exposure will screw up our weekend plans to see my family. It would have been the first I’ve seen them pre-covid. Pure selfishness in the part of these parents. [/quote]

Lol i love how you say you’re so frustrated with the parents for sending him in sick. A majority of kids with Covid don’t get symptoms. You have no reason to believe that the parents knew or suspected the kid was sick. Ridiculous[/quote]

+1 I have lost track of the number of kids who were randomly tested and turned out positive. Maybe a dozen or so I my wide circle? Totally asymptomatic and arisin surreptitiousl surprising everyone. It's frustrating when it ruins plans and it's very disruptive regardless, but you really can't blame the parents. [/quote]

Yeah.  I only know 4 kids that have tested positive.  Each one only tested because a family member tested positive.  No symptoms in any of the kids.

Tbh, it makes me wonder how many people also catch the flu each year but don't show symptoms.

All of this depends on how you define positive. The PCR tests are set to be so sensitive (for the unvaxed, the CDC has a different level for the vaxed) that we aren't even sure that a positive means you are infectious.

I'm not sure the flu tests are as sensitive as the COVID ones.[/quote]
