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 our highly vaccinated community.[/quote]

+1  I agree with these steps.  Whether or not you agree with the phrase "highly vaccinated," our hospital bed utilization percentages clearly show that Covid is not wreaking havoc in our community (well, other than the forced quarantine and isolation rules).[/quote]

Well, I have a medical situation currently. I cannot get in to see a single doctor, much less schedule my surgery, and they are all citing COVID. Hospital beds, alone, is not the only important metric here. [/quote]
