[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Also, at this point we need to be having the "who cares" conversation if someone gets COVID. Daycare populations = usually toddlers and young women. These are not high-risk populations generally, and if you as an individual teacher or child are high-risk, then you personally should not work at or attend a daycare. The onus should be on individuals to get as fully vaccinated and boosted as possible (including toddlers, who can now be vaccinated) and then if someone gets COVID, treat it like the flu.[/quote]

No there are a lot of older women as well and pregnant women so not everyone is low risk.  [/b]

Yes if I find out Sunday night daycare suddenly required PCR instead of rapid tests would be annoyed since it would likely mean missing a day of work. (Another single mom here.) OTH if it was a response to an evolving situation I would also get the lack of notice even if I was annoyed about it. [/quote]

Then those individuals can either find another job (nanny for example) with lower exposure or choose to wear a high-quality mask. My child's daycare has strict policies but I never see staff wearing N95, KN95 masks. Yes they are totally annoying to wear all day (my relatives work in healthcare and wear them 12h at a time). But if you are worried about your risk as an adult htere are steps you can take[/quote]

The “steps they can take” also include the policy OP is whining about.[/quote]

I meant steps they can take that affect themselves, not others around them who are lower risk. [/quote]
