[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Weird that Frank Bellavia said there are 16 cases. That's not true. Anyone can pull up the dashboard and see there are twice that many. [/quote] The key word there is “outbreak,” which he what he was asked about. You can have multiple cases in a single setting but if there is no evidence it would as spread in the setting (e.g., you can confirm certain students most likely caught it elsewhere, and others who tested positive were never in each others’ presence at school), then it is not technically an outbreak. But if there ate 16 cases within a single team, there is good reason to believe there has been spread in the school-based setting within the team, so those particular cases constitute an outbreak. But that still doesn’t mean all others cases at the school that have zero connection to those team members are included in the outbreak count.[/quote]
