Test-to-Stay ist ein weiterer Meilenstein in Sachen #nixklusion! Ein weiteres mal erweist sich, dass die Beteuerung vieler Politiker, die "Risikogruppen" schützen zu wollen eine #Lüge ist. 2/10
Frau @FranziskaGiffey die immer wieder beteuert, sie wolle das Gespräch mit den Bürgern suchen hat sich irgendwo in ihrer Roten Burg verbarrikadiert und reagiert seit Wochen nicht auf die Mails verzweifelter Eltern. 3/10
En los últimos días han habido cambios en ciertos protocolos…🤨
Abro🧵
…pero antes, recordar q:
👉🏻Cuarentena: es cuando esperas a ver si desarrollas síntomas tras exposición
👉🏻Aislamiento: cuando estás + y te guardas para frenar la cadena de contagios

Estas 2 prácticas las hemos usado para mitigar los casos desde inicio de la pandemia
-Cuarentena de 3-5 días luego de estar con alguien positivo: y entonces hacer prueba de COVID y ver si se desarrollan síntomas
-Aislarse 10-15 días al salir positivo para no contagiar a más

Sin embargo en los últimos días ciertos protocolos puntuales conocidos por todos se han modificado ante:
-Más información sobre el virus
-Mayor inmunidad natural y por vacuna q tiene la población
-La disrupción q ocasionan medidas: haciendo un análisis ⚖️ de costo/beneficio

🤶Dear Santa: Please, we need some Public Private Partnerships in ##Westchester for Christmas and the Covid Surge! Can you transfer some #privatesector elves to help @westchestergov provide free, accessible (by mass-transit and by drive through) rapid #PCR #testing Also, 1/6
🎅for stocking stuffers, how about enough seven-piece packages of rapid #antigen #testing for home use, available by mail or at local #health departments or local houses of worship or even by #reindeer for every #Westchester resident, free, upon request? Also, 2/6
🎅maybe Mrs. Claus can come on down to speed up our county health department to get #TestToStay rolling in our 40 #publicschool districts? It's been too much talk and no action. Finally, just want you to know, 3/6
CDC is recommending #TestToStay. But focuses only on the unvaccinated. Breakthrough cases of vaccinated people jumped 64% suddenly recently in Northern Virginia. We need to ramp up RAPID testing for ALL kids, vaxed and unvaxed, who are exposed to COVID.
Short additional 🧵: There are important qualities of such a #TestToStay program that APS would need to emulate. Can't pick and choose, get same results.
#1 - The kid who got exposed limited exposure b/c both parties WORE MASKS. Eliminate masks, gotta quarantine 'cuz certain 🤮.

#2 - No symptoms ever developed. Had to agree to either 2 (LA) or 4 (Lake County) tests, or go quarantine at home.
#3 - For "close contact" #TestToStay kids, mask wearing was required everywhere: indoors, outdoors, on bus. They didn't go to extracurriculars or after school care.

1/ Re: Rapid Antigen Tests - Are you confused after today's BC COVID-19 press conference?
Let's take a deeper dive

2/ Firstly, it is important to understand that not everyone infected with COVID-19 is infectious (capable of transmitting to others):
BLUE = Infected
RED = Infectious subset
BLUE = Infected
RED = Infectious subset
3/ During the course of an infection, the viral load changes. Most people are infectious for a brief period of time:
Is daily testing needed @statesdj ? In CA we test close contacts every three days, a negative test on day 6 and no further testing required.
In Georgia: Student close contacts continue attending school w/no symptoms & test negative every day for 7 days. nytimes.com/2021/09/19/hea…

" a number of school districts are turning to testing to keep more children in the classroom & avoid disrupting the work lives of their parents. The resource-intensive approach — sometimes known as “test to stay” or modified quarantine

@CDCgov says that it “does not have enough evidence” to support the test to stay/modified quarantine approach. Instead, it recommends that close contacts who have not been fully vaccinated quarantine for as long as 14 days.
