Local Health Expert Weighs In On COVID-19 Precautions As Parents Enroll Children In Summer Camps
Parents are starting to register their kids at summer camp, but the pandemic isn’t over.
Some places in the metro have been preparing to host day and overnight camps since last year.
COVID experts said parents should look at the activity they are signing up for and find out what precautions will be in place.
"It is very important that we maintain as much mitigation strategy for kids as we can," said OU Med's Chief COVID Officer Dr. Dale Bratzler.
He said it’s so important because kids under 16 aren’t eligible for the vaccine and kids can bring the virus home.
