[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is interesting. Regardless of vaccination status everybody at my kids private school has to test before school starts and there will be weekly testing. We were able to have in person school last academic year because of testing...there were no false positives.[/quote] You know this because...? Also were you using rapid tests or nasal-swab PCR? I had a friend whose kid tested positive in a rapid test (one that takes several hours, like those DCPS is using, not the 10-minute tests). Later that day, on a nasal swab PCR, kid tested negative. Repeatedly tested negative after that via PCR. Didn't matter, kid had to quarantine for two weeks. Kid's younger sibling tested negative. Parents tested negative. DOH didn't care about the later (better) negative tests. Point being, there's no way that anyone is proposing to prove that a false positive is actually false. So anyone that tests positive is assumed to just be positive, period.[/quote]
