[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I've just accepted that the anti mask screamers won, and anyone who doesn't wear a high quality mask as well as get al the vaccines is going to catch Covid. [/quote]

Except that vaxxed high quality mask wearers will get Covid too. [/quote]

Maybe someday, but not necessarily this month or this school year. It's still worth trying to avoid it. [/quote]

Then keep masking up, make outdoor arrangements for lunch if needed, and hope for the best.  My DH is an essential worker and we accepted a while ago there us only so much we can control.  Even with masks Covid spread around his workplace (although their ventilation systems are likely far worse than MCPS if you can believe that).[/quote]

PP here. That's what we do. All of us who sent our kids back to school have accepted the risk to some extent. We can't control everything, and the virus is everywhere. But accepting a level of risk for us doesn't mean abandoning all precautions, especially when community transmission is at such a high level. I'm tired of the "everyone is going to get it anyway so you are stupid to bother trying not to." I get it. People don't want to be bothered. But others, like my teens, don't mind masking indoors and would prefer to try to avoid getting COVID, so that's their decision.

Why does that even matter?  If you do nothing and get it, take every precaution and get it - still the same outcome. That’s where I’m at. [/quote]
