Not surprising. My parents
Not surprising. My parents live in Bedford still and I visit on the weekends. Bored rich teenagers do bored rich teenager things like hang out without wearing masks.
That being said, younger kids I see out and about seem to take it seriously.
Too bad most people over the age of 16 don't.
In-school transmission is
In-school transmission is likelier as case counts in a town go up. We shouldn't take the first 6 weeks of this school year, when cases were low, as proof that transmission won't happen in schools when case counts are x4 or x8 what they were in September.
