[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am not an extreme parent at all and we opted in for surveillance testing - all 3 times. We think it is the responsible, kind thing to do. My kid doesn’t wear a mask at school and we just flew cross country for spring break where [b]we ate indoors on several occasions[/b].

We kept the test and will use it if someone in the family gets symptoms. My preschooler has “test to stay” for exposure and we go through a lot of tests so I’m happy to take the free one.

Why throw out a test? Why not just put it in a drawer in case you need it? [/quote]

What?  Who hasn't been eating indoors since last summer?  Great indication of the type of people who post on this board - the most extreme.

Meanwhile, we were showing our kids how no one enforces forced masking at airports - only when going through TSA or on the plane.  Our plane erupted in cheers last night on the flight when it was announced this nonsense forced masking is done.[/quote]

A plane is one of the most ventilated places on the planet.  And Smart Restart is posting on Twitter that it's now not safe on planes, where people wore crappy cloth masks that were off half the flight.  And they're begging for forced child masking to come back in school.

This board is definitely the most extreme people in Arlington, just like AEM.  The regular parents are busy working, taking kids to sports and extracurrriculars, and living normal lives.[/quote]

Not a smart restart person, but did you see the airline that had to shut down a bunch of its flights after dropping masks two weeks ago, because too many staff were sick and they couldn't staff the flights?  I wouldn't be dropping my mask on a flight right now but you do you.

I believe in trying to get back to normal, but I'm not going to take outsize chances just to perform "normal" for the weirdos who need that.  If people would just be smarter about things we really could get back to normal.[/quote]

"Not a Smart Restart person...but I love to push a story spread by Eric Feigl-Ding" about 1 discount airline in Europe (vs. all the other airlines operating maskless ), and when you read the article, you find out they really had  problems getting new employees onboarded (which was causing the cancellation problems).

This is the best ventilated place on the planet.  If it's not safe to these people, nowhere is safe to them.  But hey, they can use those soon-expiring APS tests.[/quote]
