The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention supports allowing students exposed to coronavirus to remain in school without quarantining as long as they are regularly tested for the virus, CDC head Dr. Rochelle Walensky told reporters on Friday.
“Test-to-stay is an encouraging public health practice to help keep our children in school,” Walensky said.
The CDC released two studies of schools that employed the “test-to-stay” strategy, arguing that regular testing can reduce the need for students exposed to coronavirus to quarantine.
“These studies demonstrate that test-to-stay works to keep unvaccinated children in school safely,” Walensky said, adding that the strategy is “a promising and now proven practice.”
