[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If her daughter has no symptoms and had a negative test she can go to daycare and doesn’t need to quarantine. I’m very cautious but give me a break w this. If everyone quarantined every time they were near someone who had covid, no one would ever go to work/school.[/quote]

At this point, people getting angry about someone who sent her exposed but asymptomatic kid who had a negative rapid test are a bigger problem than those who send their kids in under these circumstances.  Move. On.  This level of hostility and divisiveness are worse for society than any possible risk from said asymptomatic kid.[/quote]

Everyone agrees to the policies set by the daycare when they signed up.  Of course other parents can be frustrated if people aren’t following the rules they agreed upon.[/quote]

Not everyone agreed to this. The rules changed for many who were enrolled pre-pandemic and we are obviously not in a strong place of negotiating power. And whoever runs the organizations making public health recommendations clearly don’t have young kids or understand the survival behavior of people who need their paycheck. Parents of young kids who can’t afford to quit their jobs or hire nannies are about to go into year #3 of this pandemic and cannot sustain staying home for extended periods of time just in case their kid might get sick in the next 10 days. It’s actually time for a little civil disobedience so health departments and daycares are forced to create rules based in reality.[/quote]

This.  The primary reason that essential services are being shut (including schools) is because of absurd requirements for people to stay home who are NOT EVEN SICK!  The secondary reason is adults REFUSING to get themselves and/or their children vaccinated.

Yes, Omicron is contagious…. Everyone is going to get it!!!  These policies are insane.[/quote]
