wtnhunt Posted August 23, 2020 Author Report Share Posted August 23, 2020 First week in and high school has had 2 students known to test positive. No idea why those kids were tested. Imagine there are a few asymptomatic with it. One of them was on the football team and had been practicing. Supposedly all those that had been in contact with notified and are having to isolate. School is being sure to send out their cya automated calls saying they are following guidelines blah blah blah. Our numbers here have been bad this past week, think it was on Thursday the states numbers had our county at just shy of ten times the acceptable threshold to open nursing homes. County of only 47000 has had at least 1200 positives and last I checked 11 had died. Hearing stories that the local hospital is basically to the point they are turning away or not keeping some patients. Our oldest daughter was sitting with an elderly lady, the lady overnight before our daughter got there had an in home accident out fall and was sent to that er. They would not keep her. Inside an hour after the hospital sent her on her way with her son she suffered a massive stroke! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wtnhunt Posted August 28, 2020 Author Report Share Posted August 28, 2020 Son's teacher has been in quarantine since the first week and will be until some time in September. The distant learning has been challenging so far, hopefully things will calm down before the second 9 weeks and he will be back in the school. Right now the numbers in these rural communities are worse than more populated areas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ravin R10 man Posted August 28, 2020 Report Share Posted August 28, 2020 lock down was useless, all it did was keep it from running it's course. We spiked and now it;s flattening. good luck with the kiddo's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
