Students dropping like flies (Covid)

My school sent 100 home yesterday for 2 weeks due to contact tracing.

But did they die?

So positive tests, but no deaths? If so then what's the concern?

Good that means you'll have a full class in no time

my daughters school has yet to report a single case

pretty sure everyone is just hiding it or not talking about it

I have an 8th grader, there's normally 800+ kids in his Jr high 7th/8th grade.

We are trying to do school and football, it's a mess.

Two coaches have had it, one spent two weeks in the hospital.

Just returned to football after 40 students (15 players) were quarantined for two weeks.

Volleyball team quarantined

40 more students sent home yesterday to quarantine

I worry about the stress this puts on the kids, mine is going through puberty and dealing with the rona.

Well there goes the human race. They will never procreate.

Teacher here in Lafayette, school started bringing more students in to move towards full capacity. In 2 days, 3 of my students have tested positive and will be out for 2 weeks. No opinions on what should happen, just thought I'd put it out there for my baws to know!

How many of these are false positives? How many are positive with zero symptoms. I am beyond over people just going with the 1st positive test and assuming they gave covid. The rapid tests have false positives at a 30% rate. Even the PCR tests have a false rate of 10-15%. Elon Musk took 4 tests yesterday and ran them all at the same time on the same machine and 2 were positive and 2 were not and he does not even have Covid. These tests are not reliable and you need to get 2nd and 3rd tests to verify.
