I really really doubt anyone will go virtual again not matter the case numbers.

We know kids are statistically very unlikely to get very sick from Covid (so much so that it's been hard to even prove vaccine efficacy for this cohort), and we also know we are all statistically very likely (if not guaranteed) to get Covid (probably repeatedly). Given this, what is the perceived benefit of school interruptions, and what is the basis for believing it outweighs the known harm?
You keep posting this stuff to try to bully others into thinking like you are. In MCPS, numbers are very high given its only the second week in May for May and its spreading again at an alarming rate. Mitigation is important to keep our community healthy. There is NO herd immunity. There is no better vaccine. This is as good as it gets.
We will keep our kids in remote except if we can find a school that handles it responsibly which we have yet to do.
I'd rather your kids get covid and your family vs. ours. Kids don't live alone. They live with adults who live in a community so them getting and spreading covid doesn't just impact the child, but also their family and community.
And, define very sick? My last "cold" as an adult has lasted over a month and I still cannot get over it, with multiple antibiotics. My child doesn't feel good about bringing it home to me, and in fact feels terrible about it.

No and No.
Please homeschool.
Our school stopped weekly testing for the year. Kinda weird, don't really get it. Why would you stop 3 weeks out?

None established. The link appears to be adenovirus.

But, goes to show the drastic health-effects viruses can have in children.
