[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have mixed feelings on dropping masks at school. I'm ready to be done with masks but I just got yet another notification that a student in my DD's K class is positive. So far, neither of my kids have gotten COVID when their classmates have had it - and this latest notification is the 5th one this school year. The first 3 occurred before my kids were able to be vaccinated. I don't think kids are doing much social distancing anymore, and they all eat together inside, so maybe the masks do help contain the spread. [/quote] The point of masks, vaccines, etc. is not to “contain the spread.” The point was to flatten the curve (to not overrun hospitals) and to reduce severity of illness. It’s not reasonable to expect all kids to keep wearing masks so your kids never get Covid. Your kids will get it sooner or later (and perhaps have already had it but didn’t notice).[/quote]
