In a school with 3200 kids and a few hundred staff members? If that is sustained it might get to the 5% threshold, but just barely.

They are symptomatic. Considering asymptomatic ones and symptomatic but not tested I would guess that it may be around 100 cases in one day. That is OMG.

Who said they were symptomatic?

Even if there were 100 cases, why does it matter if the cases are almost always mild? People that are high risk for severe illness should adjust their behavior, not students.

LIKE PARENTS AND TEACHERS, DUMBASS?

My friend with kids in MCPS recently survived an aggressive cancer with massive chemo and a transplant procedure. He had to get all his childhood vaccines again, plus those for Covid and flu, but he is vulnerable for life.
I know teachers in that scenario too.

WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU? Don't you understand that vulnerable people live in our community and cannot isolate completely?

Stupid moron.

What is it you suggest? This is the world now. It’s going to be a tougher place for some going forward.

So we all need to make some sacrifices for the greater good of our community instead of being selfish and putting others in harm's way.

Such as? Getting vaccinated and mask? Sure. Staying home? No.

Being vaccinated and masking aren't working. How hard is that to understand?

You think a child whose parent has cancer should lose that parent to covid because you are too selfish to care and be cautious. You are probably the one who is privilieged and raves about mental health but don't care about the trauma you are causing to other people's kids.

Here is mine:

MBHS ~50

It won’t be because it’s so hard to get tested right now. I’ve been waiting for test results for days.

Its not hard to get testing. We got our results within hours. Lots of long lines but not hard.

Whitman had 11 more today.

Last time for cutoff for closure was 5%.

The schools should not close as long as restaurants and bars are open.

You don't have to go... surprise. You can self regulate and make good decisions without the government telling you how.

You think scolding posters on this internet is more impactful than a fart in a hurricane? There are hundreds of thousands of people out in the local DMV this very moment. Your silly hypothetical is beyond irrelevant. No, I'm not staying home.

Oh my. DC is absolutely not going to school tomorrow.

So, omicron is not mild at all. No wonder Fauci has changed his tune again.

Are you vaccinated? If so, you may suffer a scratchy throat for a couple days. Not sure if you consider that mild or not.

Please, PP, show us YOUR data

And we'll pass on the South African one, thank you, because their population is much younger than ours.

Again, bars and restaurants ARE CLOSING:

The low sperm count is concerning. Are babies born these two years less healthy/intelligent etc if the father was infected?

They shouldn't have to close because staff members get positive from customers. Sad. Now they cannot even do carry out and lose a lot of money.

But, I don't keep track of it all as we only do carry out.

I can see why your kids need to be in person. I can only imagine what your home life is like.
