[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm letting my kids unmask because we will literally never get to FCPS's version of when it's safe. "Substantial transmission" is 8-10% positivity!!! That is not a number I'm afraid of. We have to get to less than 8%positivity and fewer than 49 cases per 100,000 for 7 days and stay there to meet their metric. In the past year, that has only happened from May-July of 2021. Also, 73% of all Fairfax county residents are vaccinated - that includes the under 5s who aren't eligible. For me, it's time to say that the benefits of school without a mask outweigh the chance of getting covid for my vaccinated kids. [/quote] I'm not unmasking my kids until they are allowed but you are right in saying the CDC metrics are so stringent that we will never get there. I think I heard CDC is updating their recommendations next week???[/quote] They are allowed March 1.[/quote]
