RABUN COUNTY, Ga — A CDC report released Friday reveals that hundreds of campers at a north Georgia YMCA camp were infected with coronavirus in just days before the camp was shut down.

Channel 2 Action News has confirmed that the report documents COVID-19 cases at the YMCA’s Camp High Harbor on Lake Burton in Rabun County.

According to the report, of the 597 residents who attended the camp, 344 were tested and 260 tested positive for the virus. The camp was only open for four days before being shut down because of the virus, and officials followed all recommended safety protocols.

I'm fairly new here, and managing roughly 68% of my posts earning a "like" while you're at 23%. So if it's a popularity contest I'd say I've already got a commanding lead. I'd say try harder, but I really don't think you got the gear. :lamo

When will you comment on the contents of a thread and the post you quoted without slamming a poster, Oborosen? These Georgians were only behaving like Trump.
 
In all seriousness, doesn't this inspire confidence about school reopenings? :roll:

In California there has only been 1 death of someone under the age of 18, a teenager who had underlying conditions. So sorry if I'm not rushing to close the schools down.

Who supported this research and how good was it?

Children get and pass colds to each other all the time. It does not make sense that kids are magically not going to spread Covid 19

Summer camp is way different from school since kids are sleeping in bunk beds and sharing bathrooms with others.

A lot of shenanigans happen at camp. Kids run off in the woods and do things.....
