new dates for their returns to campus, after both universities decided that their Spring semesters were to begin online.
Los Angeles Unified School District students are also now required to upgrade the quality of their facemasks, no longer allowed to wear cloth face coverings, they must wear surgical quality masks like N45 or similar varieties. Those same students, which number over 60,000 Los Angeles County residents, were required to turn in a negative test prior to their return to class earlier in January, which caused a drastic overhaul at testing centers throughout the Southland.
Since nearly 60% of PCC’s classes are being offered on campus this semester, the university will also require anyone attending those in-person classes to get tested on a weekly basis to prevent an outbreak amongst students, staff and faculty members. Seavers isn’t sure the additional testing locations will ease the strain that he felt on Sunday, “If this week took an hour, and hour-and-a-half, what’s next week going to look like when everybody has to do it weekly?”
Well, the narrative has changed. I keep getting email how it's safer for students to be in school because most if not all the kid's covid transmissions happen outside of school. .007% of covid transmissions happen from/in school. How come that is not emphasized now?
