If my son felt sick I would tell him not to test. Missing a week of classes is a lot and we all already had delta and omnicrom.
I think schools need to stop this nonsense with isolation. Ever since Delta passed its been like the flu. It was more like a cold with Omnicron for us.
Wow, you're cavalier with everyone else's health. You really don't get this disease or even how to spell its variant! Having omicron does not necessarily build not sufficient antibodies to prevent reinfection, esp w/ additional variants. Yes, there is some spreading before getting a positive test, but ignoring testing and isolating is just going to reignite the pandemic and result in more variants. Just try to be responsible.
Are you serious in that you think you can avoid covid anymore? OMG, get a clue. Keep running, Forest.
You are the problem. Try being just a little bit responsible. Masking with symptoms/pos test or if being in contact with infected people won't kill you or cramp your style too much and will help those around you stay well. But, it sounds like you only care about your own convenience.
DP. I've never had it, and according to you I don't care about people. We don't test or mask. Reality of life these days.
How many times have you had it? I’m guessing none if you are still acting like this is a huge deal for 99.99 percent of people.
How many times have YOU had it? If more than one I'm guessing you're utterly irresponsible.

I've had it twice. Both times my kids got from school and brought it home. So irresponsible of me! Go back to hiding in your basement.

Yikes! This seems like an abdication of responsibility on the part of the school.
I see as accepting the reality that this virus is now milder than the flu, but still placating people who are afraid.
how is it milder than the flu but still killing 500 people a day?

Nope. That is not accurate. Ain't that simple, my friend.

We are talking about college kids. Cite for 500 college kids dying per day? And please compare that the the number of college suicides in the last two years.

My son is a freshman and is pretty sure he has/had it along with everyone else on this floor this last week. A few people have tested but most are not. They don't want to miss class.

I know this is a COVID post and completely unrelated, but plenty of women have silent Chlamydia infections and can develop infertility from damage to Fallopian tubes… so not really no biggie.
Yes, and Covid can also have long-term effects, but apparently it's no one's problem but the one affected. No need to test or try to protect anyone else. Party on, kids!
