Well, the CDC disagrees.  But I think we should do an FCPS survey and see what the numbers really are.  As someone who has already had a kid who is vaccinated (not yet eligible to be boosted) have to stay at home as a close contact (masked if you're in 3 ft for more than 15 min you have to go home, unmasked--e.g. lunch or exemptions--it's 6 ft.), not really wanting to more than likely double the case of having to do that again.

The CDC also thinks that we should be canceling basketball, choir, and theatre in our area of high transmission.  But we are choosing to not do that.  Clearly, FCPS can pick and choose which CDC guidelines to follow.  Personally, I feel that we should eliminate the mask mandate and eliminate the close contact quarantine requirements.  Both are unnecessary given [b]our highly vaccinated community.[/b][/quote]

We're really not as highly vaccinated a community as you might think.  My relatives in Spain have school pauses for less and they think an area is not highly vaccinated when it is 90% vaccinated.  Fairfax is better than Alabama or SW VA or wherever, but on an international scale of other developed areas we're not that great.  And I've been surprised that FFx 65+ vaccination rate is stuck at 85% --that's not that great even in the US.[/quote]

Our country is also the least-vaccinated developed country. Thanks, crazy anti-vax and anti-science idiots. [/quote]
