      But ART is not that accurate for Omicron… ART maybe negative but PCR positive. 4th day can recover and go back office, hmmm… that’s a bit fast.
      Work from home or take a day off if still slightly unwell even with negative results ..

        Sometimes, things are not so simple, boss is tracing you coming back to office to work once your ART result is negative. You cannot say \"no\"..if say \"no\"...all bonus will be gone....money is difficult to earn now. :frustrated:

          Yes dd told me classmate tested positive with brand A ART and on same day tested negative on brand B ART. No symptoms.

          Another sharing. So friend's vaccinated teenager got symptoms (fever, throat pain, running nose) tested ART positive. Went tele-consulting, was told this is not considered going to see doctor, in the end, not recorded officially as C+, family/close contacts not issued HRW. Self isolate at home. After 5d still ART positive. Trace together will not be updated that she has contracted C+ b4 and she's expected to take booster due soon. Do you think MOH procedures here is a bit flawed? MOH website also states there is no recommendation to take booster for fully vax C+ person but if the vac status lapsed, the person will be considered unvax so what should the mom do?
          I hope she has taken a photo against her ID for all her ART tests. This was what I did everyday when I visited the hospital and that was a proof of ART test acceptable by MOH (of course mine was negative cos I had to visit a patient) With that, I believe she can write to MOH and extend her booster to a later date since she has the immunity in her which would last her for a few months.

              On going school I m not worried somehow..

              The issue is going for tuition. We can have online but the online class is not that well prep. as the physical class. I would prefer online even less effective but my this dd feels online is not up to the 'base' std..she teared on first lesson which was quite shocking to me coz that was first time I seen her like that.

              Now I m thinking should I insist on online..and she needs external help :sad:

              I m prepared for us to get it at one point of time but but...
              Can you consider changing tutor/tuition centre? Think some tutors/tuition centres have become very proficient at online teaching.

                    If she wants to go to CLASS...then she has to remember the following, you can write on a card for her to keep in her pencil case.
                    C - Clean/wash the hands upon arrival in tuition centre
                    L - Let hands away from the face(eyes, nose) completely and at all times
                    A - Always mask on properly, no eating and drinking; Alert teacher if anyone does not look/sound well
                    S - Stay at least one seat away from the next kid on all sides (no sharing of anything)
                    S - Sanitize/Wash hands before leaving

                    Tell her if she does not observe this, then CLASS will not be able to happen.
                    On your part, you can remind the centre to ask the teacher to help to keep a lookout for her.
                    Thanks for the suggestions..

                      is your girl vaccinated ? if done, still a higher % of being \"safe\"
                      Mp, done on 1st dose. 2nd one go 3wks or 6-8 wks period?previously think one member sharing some news the longer one like better but can we wait..

                        Take note

                        Nowadays,
                        for a number of tuition centre that are located inside shopping centre premises, students need to be vaccinated first, before they are allowed to enter the building itself, to attend tuition classes face-to-face.

                        Otherwise,
                        if students are not vaccinated, they cannot even enter the building premises, so can only attend tuition online, but not face-to-face physical premises.
