娃在曼哈顿上小学，还没停课 Dear XXX Families, I know that many of you are concerned about the recent news regarding the Coronavirus and its possible impact if it reaches New York City. While we can't control whether or not the virus spreads to NYC, we are trying to remind our students about basic healthy practices they should be mindful of to prevent the spread of germs within the classroom community. On a school level, we are working to insure that common surfaces in classrooms and bathrooms are disinfected. One of the most important ways we can support our students is reminding them of proper hand-washing. This is the best way to prevent the spread of germs. This is a link to a hand washing poster we use with our students at school that you can use to reinforce this at home. Some of you have inquired about school closings. Decisions about closing schools is something that will be directed from the Department of Education, as it affects the larger school system across New York City. As I receive information from the DOE or Office of School Health, I will forward that information to you as well. In the meantime, it's important to make sure our students feel comfortable and filter news for them about the virus. It is important that as we address this outbreak, we separate facts from fear, and guard against stigma and discrimination. There are a lot of things on social media and in the news that are at best not rooted in science. We need to encourage everyone to keep their attention on the facts and support our XXX community. Everyone should continue to practice prevention measures including covering your cough, washing your hands often and staying home from school when you are sick.
我是想过不去上课了，但是纽约市官方目前只有一例，没有学校会允许旷课两个月的。4月还有州考，我也知道可以opt out，但是不参加，4年级学业不完成的话，会有什么后果吗？虽然学业和命比起来都是小事，但是到底什么时候pull the trigger？等政府行动（如果政府还会有措施at all的话）估计黄花菜都凉了。
版上总有曼哈顿上班上学的ID吧，能分享一下大家的防疫措施吗？ hellokitty1978 发表于 3/3/2020 9:03:36 AM
以下是我們學區superintendents 發出的信。我把學區XXXX了但是這裡應該有不少鄰居，看了就知道是哪。內容很詳盡，但是很長。有耐心看完的話，特別留意DOH跟CDC的角色，還有停課的條件。我們的superintendents 很專業，也很重視華人家長的聲音。 February 27, 2020 Dear XXXX School Community: The recent news involving the Novel Coronavirus is creating concern across the globe, and our school district is closely monitoring all facets of the emerging situation very carefully. This morning, members of the Nassau County Council of School Superintendents and I met with Dr. Lawrence Eisenstein, the Commissioner of Health for the Nassau County Department of Health. As of this writing, there are no confirmed cases of Novel Coronavirus in New York State and 15 confirmed cases in the United States, excluding those individuals returning from a cruise. According to Dr. Eisenstein, six people in Nassau County tested negative for Novel Coronavirus, and there are currently 78 asymptomatic individuals who recently traveled to China being monitored daily (for a period of up to 14 days) by the DOH. The DOH will determine if any student returning from China needs to be monitored. The District will receive such notification directly from the DOH. Furthermore, the DOH will notify the District when a child can return to school. We will work closely with the DOH to follow these guidelines. I want to take a moment to update you on some of the precautions and actions we have taken and will be taking within our schools: * Our custodial staff has been cleaning frequently touched surfaces (doorknobs, computer keyboards, handrails, etc.) throughout the day. * We utilize large disinfecting machines that are used to clean classrooms and large spaces. * Additional hand sanitizers have been installed in each of our schools. * Students and staff are encouraged to wash their hands throughout the day with greater frequency. * Our school nurses are available to answer any health-related questions. Additionally, I’d like to remind our community about the simple steps we can all take to help stop the spread of this and other respiratory viruses: * Wash your hands often with soap and water for at least 20 seconds. If soap and water are not available, use an alcohol-based hand sanitizer, preferably with 60-95% alcohol. * Avoid touching your eyes, nose and mouth. * Avoid close contact with people who are sick. * Stay home when you are sick. * Cover your cough or sneeze with a tissue, then throw the tissue in the trash. * Routinely clean and disinfect frequently touched objects and surfaces. If you have specific questions about your child's health, please be sure to communicate with your child's physician. Students who show any evidence of not feeling well should remain at home and students who are ill must be fever-free for at least 24 hours (without using a fever-reducing medicine) before returning to school. As always, your child's school nurse and/or principal remain a resource to you and your family regarding this issue. We remain in close communication with and will continue to follow the guidance from the United States Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), the New York State Department of Health (NYSDOH), New York State Education Department (NYSED), and the Nassau County Department of Health (DOH). In the event of a health emergency, any decisions regarding a school closing would come at the direction of the local Departments of Health and various state governmental agencies, with input from the NYSED. While we have not received guidance from NYSED regarding this matter, the District is looking into plans to ensure some continuity of instruction in the unlikely event that we are forced to close school. The latest information about the Novel Coronavirus and preventative measures can be found on the websites for the following organizations and agencies: NYS Department of Health, Centers for Disease Control (CDC), Nassau County Health Department, and New York State Education Department (NYSED). Additionally, the NYS Department of Health has established a hotline to answer questions about the Novel Coronavirus at 1-888-364-3065. As always, the health and safety of our students, faculty, and staff remain the District's primary concern. Rest assured that we will continue to follow the directions we receive from State and local authorities regarding the Novel Coronavirus, and will take the precautionary measures outlined above for the safety of our school community. I will continue to keep you updated on any information as I receive it. Thank you all for your cooperation. Sincerely, Superintendent of Schools

考虑二个星期吧。我还建议租个rv, 比如去FL，人少的地方，玩十天半月，不与任何人员集中场所有交集。
我说的是按电梯，门我用elbow开。你要是在意别人眼光，那什么都不能做了，我完全不在意白痴们怎么想
小学现在也没停课啊，还都在学校互相拥抱玩耍交流。。。。呢
🛋️ 沙发板凳
早买啊， 晚了可能涨价， 哎
这条即使可行，要付出相当大代价啊，每天至少要多出两小时在交通上，曼哈顿那个交通尤其早上惨不忍睹。然后到了公司进电梯内也是高风险，进了办公室你是开车，同事都是地铁，在办公室不可能戴口罩啊，怎么防？每条都是坑，防不胜防啊
你看看官老爷们一副不作为的样子 在电视上喊low risk low risk你觉得他们会让韭菜wfh?
真是来气 这都要归功于政府的宣传啊。有时候觉得美国民众自己也是傻萌呆萌蠢，看别的国家都乱成那样可美国民众就能蜜汁自信好像这绝不可能发生在美国一样
没有任何银行WFH，只是travel取消而已。希望傻逼市长和州长能中招就知道病毒厉害了。
周末我一个朋友还转发Rush Limbaugh的radio show，今天还post了一个一月底的表说新冠和其他major viruses比是小case。 他也是名校毕业的理工白男。

唉
一口气请那么多天,你手上的工作怎么办?老板也得能批阿
exactly。
想不被感染，别无他法。
除非全家人都请假，否则没有用。
随着纽约病例增多。看有什么变化吧。
你冷静下。要有那么严重公司都会让在家上班的。Sandy 后很多人在家上班了几个月呢。
我的意思就是全家啊 当然这个要看每个人自己对形势的判断如何
停工停课停运。跟其它已经爆发的国家采取一样的措施。
可是不听话的队友一旦感染全家都会中招啊。我队友也是丝毫不觉得严重，还说数据上看死亡率只有一点几，我说数据不代表实际情况，武汉还一直稳定在2.1呢。 我现在坐地铁就用大围巾围起来，娃用透明罩子罩在推车里，每半小时狂喷一次酒精消毒。这两天我让娃呆在家里了，尽量劝队友wfh
那你同事呢，也和你一样都买个车位？
你难道能把他赶出去住？
我老公也是说我不听话，让我自生自灭。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。
你们所在的学区是直升中学的吗？ 有些区五年级申请中学的时候一些screening的学校要看州考成绩和attendance。 你看看你想给孩子申请的中学是不是competitive的要不要看这些指标。
我队友周末去酒吧跟哥们儿看球去了，气死我了。晚上我堵着门不让他进，叫他滚到hotel里面去住两周。他央求了半天，许诺再也不干这事了。昨天他们公司有MSG的票，他拒绝了。现在他主动错峰上下班。。不过下周他们有一帮以色列客户过来，也是很烦人，就在伊朗戈壁！
有想过，但是又觉得每次骑之前，岂不是还得给车消个毒。
在考虑是不是得去买个折叠自行车。
我弟弟也是， 每场nba的球都去madison sq garden看， 我都替他担心。
我老公还要summer去非洲，死都不肯cancel，我只能视死如归了。
我们也外食，很早就不去中餐馆了，但是现在是不是哪个餐馆都不要去了？矮马，我家最爱外食的是我儿子
别乱猜了，医务人员不是傻子，看帖的人也不是傻子。是不是流感诊所一测就知道。
武汉的经验已经告诉我们了，是肺炎想瞒也瞒不住。纸包不住火，不是你说是流感就是流感的。
这种想当然的论断还是不要乱传播的好。
看来一个家里标配都是一个心大，一个操心哈哈。瑞士现在看着还好，不过欧洲沦陷起来很快的
或者穿burka，就名正言顺了
出去怎么隔离呢？酒店的中央空调也是很危险。或者你就带着娃搬去婆家好了，我和婆婆商量好了，万一我队友病了我们就立刻抛弃他投奔婆婆
我家也是，我都安慰自己煮熟了没事，日料沙拉什么的是不敢吃了
我队友昨晚才和同事去了MSG还说Knicks今年很烂但这场打的不错，上周末有个朋友来看娃，进门才说近三个月胸闷气短看了好多次医生都没检查出来为什么，我真是满头黑线，赶紧让娃去午睡了，防不胜防啊。今天回来好好谈谈wfh，人多的地方活动都得取消
据说姜黄也可以提高免疫力，打算最近多吃点印度菜哈哈。
open office其实也很危险，毕竟地铁上那么短的时间，上班一坐就是一天，还中央空调。德国最早的案例不就是和上海女同事开了个会就被感染了么
那是因为国内除了检测盒还做ct呀，这里哪有ct辅助，这里医生特教条，说了测试盒就只能测试盒了，其它看看都不屑的
我已经这么做一个多月了 ，从西雅图第一例开始就这么做的
现在的问题是，不是让自己不感染，而是不要做医疗条件会拥堵的那一波，第一批大爆发的，就纽约现在的准备，只能死扛，不做这一波，然后见机行事。这一波留给那些相信cdc相信政府的人用他们全家性命来表忠心吧
Jpmorgan今天不是鼓励wfh了么
卫生纸应该不能阻挡病毒。
把卫生纸折起来，垫着按电梯，出了电梯就扔掉，国内一线三家传染科主任首肯有效。我是觉得大家能接受才说，我自己早就随身携带圆珠笔了，拔笔帽，按电梯，盖上笔帽，回家消毒笔芯
是不是流感，诊所一测还真不一定知道。首先测流感的准确率也远低于百分之百。
sanitizer基本无用。
对
对的。靠自身抵抗力抗过去的。
唉我试了用纸包着门把手开门，被人鄙视了😒你拿个笔戳，会不会更奇怪？只是比还是戳不了门把手。。。。
戴一次性手套
那出门一趟得几个？而且感觉不比带😷less引人注目啊。。。
口罩应该比一次性手套更扎眼吧
其实大家都知道这个思路，只是不想丢工作而已
上中学的才不好管，都美国人了只听民主党市长的80%自愈还理你父母，背后笑父母神经病。倒是功课紧不好不上学。小学生太好管了，没啥学的，休息一两个月在家，父母讲啥还信。
小学现在也没停课啊，还都在学校互相拥抱玩耍交流。。。。呢
