Nope, they’re not. Read the article. Lack of masking/testing gets you 75% of kids with COVID in 3 months. Masking + testing half of all kids weekly gets you around 20% infected. The DC models, with masks/testing 10% each week, gets you more than 50% of kids infected within 3 months.


Where does it say testing at 10 percent gets you to 50 percent? I see 22 percent with masks and testing.


Oh never mind, that’s testing half the students weekly, which DCPS isn’t doing.

So if you care about your kids getting COVID, it’s appropriate to be nervous.
