[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My HS student tested positive last week and went to school and practice. Wouldn't wear a mask because he felt like he'd get a lot of questions and make everyone uncomfortable. (I know. But I literally can't force it.)

He has no symptoms, we only tested because a grandparent he'd visited recently was hospitalized with Covid. I've tested daily and am still negative, so I'm not too worried about him spreading Covid in school.[/quote]

Why bother testing in the first place?  Kid had no symptoms and testing positive didn’t change anything. Why bother?

FTR we don’t test at all so I’m not flaming you just curious why you bothered?[/quote]

I have the same question.  Why did you test when it has no impact on your behavior?[/quote]

This.  We only ever test one of our kids (only if they have symptoms) because they are truly immunocompromised and do alter our course of action if they have it.  [/quote]

this makes no sense. we also have an immunocompromised family member and we test everyone who comes down with the sniffles cuz we need to isolate them away from the vulnerable one to protect her. why don't you do this too PP?[/quote]

The only reason to test is so they can get paxlovid if they have it (kid is 19).  They're going to be exposed every day regardless. [/quote]

You don't see the difference between a potential exposure and an actual close exposure in your own household? Okaaay. [/quote]
