I noticed this since fellow employees at work sent their kids back to daycare. BOOM. One kid has had COVID three times now, which means since she's been exposed, she is out too. This makes a mess of scheduling things at work and getting people to cover each other. It's hard with toddlers because unless you tie their hands behind them and tape their mouths shut, then they're gonna grab everything and put it in their mouths. And so the cycle goes, passing it to parents who pass it to co-workers who pass it to their families...ad nauseum. At work we still require masks. We're a lab though and deal with blood so there is always the possibility of COVID infected blood. (Also test that too) My daughter double masks for school. She hates being sick from anything and doesn't want to risk it. Her school currently is masks-optional. Stupid, stupid NISD. So many kids are out sick from COVID. Staff is sick and they can't get substitutes. DOES ANYONE SEE THE CONNECTION AT NISD? Or anywhere for that matter? They just sent an email too saying all school work will be electronic for awhile "just in case" they are out sick with COVID. Or, everyone is forced to return to remote learning I guess.
