Thank you to the reader who sent the following---your frustration is shared by a great many parents...good luck to all those navigating this issue.
However, questions regarding local summer camps (the documented dangers from mask wearing in plus 90 degrees temps, etc.) should be directed to whatever camp you are currently considering. Only you as a parent can decide whether or not out-of-state and/or other options are an alternative.
In the meantime, here's the latest "guidance", excerpted below.....you are of course encouraged to read the entire article at the link provided.
THE CDC'S CRUEL, IRRATIONAL GUIDANCE TRAPS OUR KIDS IN THE FOREVER PANDEMIC--HIGHLIGHTS
---Last week, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention released a fresh set of guidelines for summer camps. Like much of the CDC’s guidance, this latest was a bunch of irrational nonsense. (Yes, “experts” can be guilty of that.) ... The camp guidance — clearly written by someone who has never attended summer camp and isn’t even mildly aware of what goes on there — suggests kids be separated by 3 feet at all times, and 6 feet when they’re eating. The CDC maintains that vaccinated adults who work at these camps should continue to be masked — and, of course, kids should wear masks, too. The people making these absurd calls will be sitting in air-conditioned offices, while your children and their underpaid counselor will be needlessly sweating under their masks playing color war in 90-degree weather. Don’t listen to them.
---Last Sunday, national virus guru Dr. Anthony Fauci told CNN, “The risk when you’re outdoors, which we have been saying all along, is extremely low.” Oh, they’ve been saying it all along, have they? No, of course they haven’t. In fact, Fauci had many times stressed the importance of masking, even outdoors. Who could forget him standing on a pitcher’s mound last spring, 90 feet from the nearest person but still wearing his mask? That’s why it’s so important to now tune out Fauci and the CDC. Their misinformation and constant flip-flops are causing us societal harm.
