Those of you pushing pushing pushing to get schools open RIGHT NOW should be pushing for faster vaccination of teachers and staff. I can’t believe how heartless Americans are.

How can we do that? Northam greenlighted 1B. FCPS where I live is literally vaccinating teachers starting on the 16th via INOVA. Not being a trained to put shots into people's arms, I don't think there's anything I can do.

This doesn't seem to be new guidance. If it is, its meaningless.

Yup. In FCPS Brabrand literally had some of these tables/matrices in his slides at the last SB meeting. SB still shot him down before he was even done, not even considering that the matrix definitely showed FCPS at "priority learners should be in school."

Yeah doesn’t seem too helpful to me either.

“Put education first. Prioritize educational opportunities over extracurricular activities or other events in the school and surrounding community.” Though it’s sad FCPS needed that piece of advice that should seem obvious.

So, as I read this, middle and high school fall into the “highest risk” category because they are mixing students and classes. At least in APS, Fairfax and Loudon. Am I right about this?

[Anonymous]

If anything, this is more restrictive for middle and high school than the current APS and Fairfax plans. Seems to place middle and high school in the highest risk category.

this is pretty pathetic guidance. The governor implied better. Interesting also that it was apparently going to be released a few weeks ago and districts complained- I'm thinking it must have been watered down. The only real thing is you idiots prioritize education over sports.

[Anonymous]

Does this mean they will cancel sports?

It probably means nothing. They’ll probably have everyone come back hybrid for 4th quarter I think.

I am scheduled for the 18th.
The earliest my second dose could be is Feb 8th.
I will be fully protected on Feb 22.

The biggest shame is the nurses and doctors that are getting covid between their first and second dose. Let’s hold on a little longer.

You’re the heartless one. Opening schools is less damage long term.

It’s exactly what Brabrand already presented and the school board said no.

This is irrelevant

Written by a doctor. Better than listening to someone’s opinion on an anonymous message board IMO.

Schools need to be open. Enough is enough.
