About half of elementary school students in a California classroom tested positive for COVID-19 after being exposed to an infected teacher who had not been vaccinated, highlighting the delta variant’s ability to quickly spread, a federal study released Friday found. Of the teacher’s 24 students,22 were tested for the virus that causes COVID-19. Twelve students tested positive between May 23 and May 26, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said. All 22 children were too young to receive a vaccine, as the shots have not been approved for youths younger than 12.
