A COVID-19 outbreak at a Georgia night camp in June could have implications for the school reopening, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said.
The camp had followed some but not all of the CDC’s mitigation measures against the spread of the novel coronavirus – but was not enough to keep campers and staff disease-free.
“Environments, like multi-day and overnight summer camps, pose a unique challenge when it comes to preventing the spread of infectious diseases given the time campers and staff spend proximity, ”the CDC wrote in a statement.
