So is MOCO just never opening?

[Anonymous]

MoCo ever closed? Funny you say that. Could have fooled me!

And 14 days declines in deaths. Which means bringing it to zero for moco

Good grief. No, it doesn't. Stop repeating this. It's mathematically false.

There are an awful lot of cars on the road, for a supposedly-"closed" county on "lockdown".

Schools too.

Ha wow. Yeah, not happening. You guys really need to come to reality. A vaccine may never be effective. We cannot wait for a hope like that.

I agree. But we CAN wait until there aren't very many cases circulating, so we're not likely to be exposed to it.

MD can contact trace 1,000 cases right now. That’s about the number of new cases each day. They’re continually increasing contact tracing operations, so we can deal with more cases, assuming case numbers do go up as restrictions are relaxed.

So how low do the new case numbers need to go each day for you to feel comfortable?

14 consecutive days of decline like Hogan and Trump said from the start.

Feels like the impossible dream at this point.

Because it IS impossible. At least without a vaccine. So you might as well just get used to it.

We're not going to wait on a vaccine, obviously. But we do have to wait until it seems like cases are going down instead of up. That's just common sense. Otherwise, why did Trump shut down the economy at all? Was that just a huge stupid mistake on his part?

This. It’s totally absurd to count people who were almost dead already!

Nice.

Actually, they need to be treated differently because they’re not community spread deaths, so they’re not indicative of the virus circulating in the broader community. That’s how Hogan is considering it (it’s in MD’s reopening plan), but in MoCo Elrich and Gayles aren’t separating them out.

It’s the cavalier, offensive wording that is the problem.

Life matters, at 3 or 83. That poster should be ashamed of herself.

So you’re upset about the wording, or the concept?

DP. The idea that the deaths of old people don't really count, because hey, they were old, and everyone's gonna die sometime? A pro-life position, it's not.

We'll all be dead before we "get used to it."

All over the site, from deplorable pro-openers at all costs.

Gayles just said in his briefing today that stage one will probably start next week.

We're driving around aimlessly.
