Student Test Positive

I believe she's first grade. She was in Tuesday and out yesterday, I believe her class or entire grade is shut down. I had three girls on the bus yesterday, 3rd and 4th grade

Urgent Care said I can't go for a test for another 4-5 days because that's how long it takes after exposure. Also Buzz do you know if new hires are getting those 5 days sick pay this year like we were able to use last year

If you get a positive result and/or are TOLD to quarantine it's my understanding that your sick days are not used for this purpose.

The reason I ask is because I would assume that today you should have no children on the bus because I also assume that the school should have told all of them that they have to quarantine.

You would think so, right? But then, this is a Jewish school ...

But he does get paid right?

I think I would only get paid if I show a positive test. They won't pay me to sit home till I show a negative which is what it should be. If I'm out today and tomorrow and my results come
Back over the weekend I'm negative the should pay me Thursday and Friday. But from the sounds of it if you come in contact and haven't been tested yet you can still
Come in as per what they told me today

Watch out for City MD ... supposed to be free but I've heard they've been billing people.

Yeah ended up at urgent care they didn't ask for payment yet and I'm
In
My car after I signed up lol.

Good luck hope your negative

TheKid24 · January 07, 2021, 05:33:45 PM

Just finished they did both, she was like it could be too early given I had contact with her 2 days ago and symptoms show later but in my head I was like my friend was exposed and tested positive after like a day or two of being exposed...

My Rapid is negative, I'll hear back in 3-5 days on the lab

Buzz · January 07, 2021, 05:43:17 PM

Too soon, Kid ...IMHO.

TheKid24 · January 07, 2021, 05:45:52 PM

I don't think so. My friend was out to dinner with a bunch of friends and tested positive two days later. Overall I think I'm fine based off the fact she and I both had masks on and she walks by me not even two seconds on and off. Didn't cough or sneeze in my direction.
