Per a statement from Grace Episcopal Alexandria, a fully vaccinated member of the Grace Episcopal School staff and a student have tested positive for the COVID-19 virus. Given the increasing prevalence of more infectious strains of the disease, this was an outcome that I believe was inevitable.
As a result of the news, all in-church programs were cancelled for Sunday May 2 and Monday May 3.
It is important to remember that COVID-19 remains a deadly threat, and to do everything possible to reduce risk.
