What you need to know about COVID-safe activities with your kids
Advice for vaccinated parents and kids
As vaccinations continue to roll out and summer draws closer, many parents are wondering if it s safe to travel and participate in other activities with their kids.
As nicer weather approaches, parents who are fully vaccinated are asking themselves, what safe activities can I do with my unvaccinated child? Outdoor things is where is going to be at, says Dr. James Conway, Pediatric Infectious Disease specialist at the University of Wisconsin School of Medicine and Public Health.
Dr. Conway says it is still too soon to do indoor playdates with other children, especially if they are not in your bubble.
CORONAVIRUS VACCINES
IN LOUISIANA More than a million people in Louisiana have completed their coronavirus vaccine series. That s about 22% of the state’s population. The latest health department data was released Thursday. Officials hailed the benchmark. But that vaccination rate remains far below the threshold scientists say is needed to stop the uncontrolled spread of the COVID-19 disease caused by the coronavirus. Louisiana has launched a broad statewide effort to try to overcome vaccine reluctance. But adding to that reluctance is the Centers for Disease Control and Food and Drug Administrations’ recent call to place the single-dose Johnson & Johnson vaccine “on hold” so health experts can look into rare blood clots that occurred in 6 women weeks after receiving the coronavirus vaccine. The type of clot is called a cerebral venous sinus thrombosis or CVST for short.
