[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Knowing that schools are quarantining broadly - at least when they first identify a positive - I am not at all concerned about the "numbers in quarantine" from news articles or otherwise. And I think it's disingenuous to report on it because schools and school systems are using WILDLY different thresholds to identify a need to quarantine.

The schools are in an impossible position, with some families clamoring for the narrowest possible definition of close contact so that all kids can stay in person as much as possible and there are no/few quarantines.

And then middle ground families are ok with broad-ish quarantines because, at some cost to in-person school, they may help stop spread and school-based outbreaks.

And then the most risk averse families hanging on every positive case as if it spells doom for their children, and wanting to limit school attendance in general so that not 1 person gets COVID.

It's impossible. [/quote]

exactly. I’m really reallt tired of the sh*t reporting on schools and covid in this region, which seems to be limited to elevating the voices of people with anxiety disorders and reporting data completely out of context. [/quote]
