Colleges that did comprehensive mass testing before students entered campus did not succeed in stemming the spread of infection; many have recently reported hundreds of cases soon after opening. From the schools standpoint, ‘don’t test don’t tell’ probably makes more sense if the goal is strictly to keep the schools open.

If that is the goal, that is the only way to accomplish it. That said, anyone who has that as their only goal has no business educating children.

That strategy makes sense for a sleep away camp where the virus would be contained to a small group of low risk kids. However in a school setting where kids are going home every night and the virus can spread to siblings who go to other schools and you are asking for a large scale breakout which would spread to a much larger group of potential high risk individuals.  You have to ask yourself what is the goal here, is it to keep schools open at all costs or the preservation of life?

Just spoke to a Lakewood doctor. There's a huge outbreak going on, with scores of cases being reported daily. And probably not even the full picture because many people are just not testing because they don't want to quarantine.

I'm guessing something will probably come out very soon - passed by a doc. Office looks jammed..

Scores as in multiples of 20 daily? Why isn’t the data reflected in OCHD #’s?

A few possibilities:
- There's a lag in reporting.
- There's a sizable portion of our community who live in Jackson/Toms River and aren't included in the OCHD Lakewood numbers.
- I'm not sure if he meant the exact literal definition of "score".

The principal of a school said that it was a mistake not to start the week camp ended. Families have been going on vacation this week and will be coming back to school without any time in between.

I heard some people discussing how these aren't good because they facilitate tracing
Nuts. Even if tracing is imperfect, isn't it worth it to save lives? I have kids going to school, none of us have had it and my grandparents live across the street. I am quite unhappy about having no precautions being instituted by my kid's school.

People running schools in Lakewood have seen what the Lakewood public schools have done to prep for kids coming back to school, and have done....nothing.

Then they send letters about how we need to pay full tuition because we are "shutfim" in our children's education. Apparently keeping kids safe and healthy isn't part of the shutfus.

A real shutdown, or like before (please come through the side door)?

Workflowy. You won't know what you're missing until you try it.

26 new cases via OCHD.

This is highest number recorded in Lakewood since at least 6/1. (That's when I began tracking.)
