The high school magnets and entire DCC consortium are a big problem in this whole thing as they spread the exposure risk across broader geographic areas. Think of this from a contact tracing standpoint. If you have a kid in a magnet class that is identified as an asymptomatic carrier then you have a far larger web of all the geographic areas and people to trace out.

Why is it harder to trace a magnet kid who lives in a SFH in Bethesda VS a local kid who may live in a cramped apt building often with multiple families. You think the 45 min bus ride is a harder obstacle than a large undocumented community with language and trust barriers?[/quote]

Because its a larger web of communities. The magnet kids come from Bethesda, Rockville, North Potomac, Potomac. They have the same PE classes with kids who are local to Blair or in caps and elsewhere in the DCC through CAPS or the choice program. Each kid from a different geographic area has a family that has siblings at elementary schools, grocery shops, sees doctors, engages with neighbors in a completely different location. It magnifies the spread. [/quote]

Lots of magnet kids come from Silver Spring too.  Where ever the magnets are  they would always be bringing in kids from other areas.[/quote]

Lots is a stretch even considering how big Silver Spring is  [/quote]
