Honestly. BA2 is extremely contagious. It will be weeks before we know if it will truly surge or just be a "bump". I'm not pulling DD out of daycare and I won't make her teachers deal with a mask she never keeps over her nose anyway (unless it becomes required again). At this point her grandparents are protected with 4 shots, DH and I have 3 shots and she is 3 so already lower risk than all of us. I don't want COVID but it's a risk I'm willing to accept.

I don't know if I have a cold or covid as the home tests are negative but I've been really sick for over a week as my child has been. Its been miserable. I have at least another few days to a week to go... can I thank you for this?

So you don’t even know if you have Covid? So your comment is entirely worthless. Thanks

And none of my 3 kids have ever had it. Unmasked all year. Anecdotes are worthless.

Sorry your kid is sick! But...how can we be careful? My work policy is have childcare or take leave. Not a lot of room to maneuver there.

Somewhere over the last two years, we have moved to a point where it is literally unacceptable to be "sick" anymore. Colds, the flu, seasonal allergies - all of these used to be pretty regular things, yet somehow, we carried on. And we didn't feel the need to post on DCUM about every incident either!

I don’t understand if you’re OP or someone else but why haven’t you gotten a PCR if you think you have covid?

We tried to warn you...

The replies are awful and show us exactly why we are still in this mess. Sorry your kid is sick. I hope they have an easy case and the rest of your family can stay negative

Man has DCUM on Covid changed.

I love it.

Omg it’s almost like it’s endemic!

And my kid got the flu and some terrible colds in daycare. So?

Be careful out there. There is definitely a rise in cases!
