In Alberta, our top doctor has just said that if you have the variant of COVID your quarantine could be as long as 24 days. 10 days for the confirmed person and 14 more days for anyone in contact with them. This is going to make my friends still teaching a little crazy. One has been in COVID jail as she calls it twice so far this school year. Of course she is expected to teach online during her quarantine. The variant has been found at a day care and not surprisingly they had older siblings who went into the schools. Not sure how or when this is going to end as we are having problems getting vaccines.
