[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Sorry, I'm just going to say it. Schools need to stay closed this week DMV is a Covid hotspot, snow tomorrow, families coming back from travels and reunions, teachers who may have it, kids indoors. They say this will peak Jan 9. Just keep the schools closed and the hospitals out of meltdown.[/quote] +1[/quote] +2 Local Case numbers are way below safe levels for unvaxxed and unboosted students under 15. We are not sending our DC to school in person. Fortunately school already said students can attend virtual classes if families prefer.[/quote] All kids 5+ can be vaccinated and now 12-15 can be boosted. My vaccinated kids got covid (as did vaccinated and boosted adults) and it was very mild. Continued reasonable testing makes sense. Policy cannot continue to be driven by protecting the unvaccinated. People need to make responsible choices for their own health. If you are terrified of getting covid, then enroll in virtual school. Otherwise, it seems like the majority of independent schools are doing responsible testing and decisions based on the results. [/quote] 12-15 is not approved to be boosted. Approval may come this week. [/quote] Constant misinformation and inaccurate info on this board. Also, we’re not just taking protective measures for the unvaxxed, it’s also for the immunocompromised, as well as health care workers at hospital staff who are stressed, traumatized, stretched thin, and burned out. I’m not terrified. I simply care about my neighbors and community.[/quote] DMV hospitals are not even close to overburdened. Staff may be short but that’s on hospital management. It’s not a function of the number of Covid hospitalizations somehow being high, because they aren’t. And they won’t be. [/quote] We could not get any medical appointments for non COVID matter after Christmas close to new year at any local urgent care places and our regular medical office was closed. [/quote]
