    Yes indeed. Fortunately for us our child's after school / summer camp will be doing e-learning so we will send him there.

    Just going to leave this here, shall I?

    DeSantis: So we’re going to follow their guidance. So basically, it’s a symptom-based approach if you test positive. You obviously isolate. But then if you have had a certain number of days, I think it’s between 10 and 14, depending on the circumstances with no symptoms or the symptoms have subsided, no fever, then there’s a pathway for you to go back.

    I think or know I had COVID-19, and I had symptoms
    You can be around others after:

    • 10 days since symptoms first appeared and
    • 24 hours with no fever without the use of fever-reducing medications and
    • COVID-19 symptoms have improved (for example, cough, shortness of breath)


    I tested positive for COVID-19 but had no symptoms
    If you continue to have no symptoms, you can be with others after 10 days have passed since you had a positive viral test for COVID-19. Most people do not require testing to decide when they can be around others; however, if your healthcare provider recommends testing, they will let you know when you can resume being around others based on your test results.


    Looks to me like he was pretty on target. Of course, now the spin shall commence.

    No---I understood the article perfectly
    "Most people do not require testing to decide when they can be around others;"

    Because most people don't have it.

    Show us something that says people that test positive, can't spread it within the 10 days. I'll wait.

    Maria Van Kerkhove, the World Health Organization’s (WHO) technical lead for COVID-19, said at a press briefing on June 8 that asymptomatic transmission appears to be “very rare.”
