[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Not sure why you’re saying the outbreaks among athletes were not disproportionate. Athletes are tested because they play in close proximity others, breathing heavily, often without masks.  There were lots of times this last year where whole groups of athletes on the same team at the same school tested positive for covid at the same time and got sick.

If you want to engage in [b]higher risk activity[/b] (this includes band! And theater!), you need to accept the consequences. Funny how the band parents aren’t being all aggro about accepting the consequences of risk. Or theater. Nah just hyped up sports parents. Okay.

I wish we could test everyone!  But I can see why sports parents are against it. If we did that, it would show that kids who play sports catch the virus at greater percentages than kids in classes wearing masks.  So of course they want to keep the general testing numbers down. *shrug*[/quote]

Haha - god, COVID is a cold for vaccinated people.  Now, getting a cold is a "high risk activity".  Reminds me of the lunch petition last year when they said eating indoors was a "high risk activity". FYI - restaurants are still packed in Arlington so people must not see it a cold as all that risky. [/quote]

Not even a cold. A lot of these athletes already had COVID so they're just popping positives asymptomatically. I can't wait until we stop this asymptomatic nonsense. COVID will be here forever and this asymptomatic nonsense is hurting our kids.[/quote]
