Thank goodness viruses like the flu are not tracked.

I don’t want MCPS wasting a cent of our taxpayer money tracking the flu.

Denial must be a wonderful thing.

Denial of what? I’m not denying that the flu exists. Not denying that Covid exists.

The point is that it is a waste of resources for MCPS to track cases of Covid in high schools.

Should the county still track deaths from Covid (and the flu)? Yes, of course.

But there is no good reason for high schools to track the numbers of Covid cases. Especially when we know that Covid is not a threat to otherwise healthy high school students.

Let’s not forget that ZERO kids age 0-17 have died of Covid in Montgomery County.

Lets not forget MoCo has been really lucky with child fatalities but its only a matter of time. However, in MD, DC, and VA children HAVE died of covid as have their parents, and other relatives. Lets not forget a child can bring home covid to a parent or caregiver and that can kill that parent or caregiver. Its not just about the child, but the child being a carrier.

I don't care about death numbers at this point, I care about transmission. I care about getting it. You also don't seem to realize not all high schoolers are "healthy" nor are their family members so you need ot check your privilege.

Sorry to break it to you, but you WILL get Covid at some point. The sooner you come to terms with that, the better off you’ll be.

I did get it over the summer and it was not fun and lasted weeks. Don't want to do that again.

Interesting fact: in Japan when tracking cases they've seen a decrease in COVD but an increase in deaths from mild cases with no pneumonia. I think tracking is a good idea. You never know what we'll learn.

Yup. He's immune now, but he might have it again in a month.

That’s just the way it’s going to be. Embrace the immunity and get on with your life.

How is that immunity? That's idiotic. If it takes a month to get exposed again and he gets sick again, then there's no immunity.

Us too. First time we had it it was HORRIBLE and had lasting effects (before vaccines came out). Second time was 10 days inside sick. First time was really horrible but the second time still sucked. Don't want to waste another 10 days of our lives like that.

Are you pretending that people don’t experience serious, long term side effects from even mild cases.

Of course he is. I think his real issue is the stalking.

Yep! Yay for natural immunity - which has been shown to be robust.

Dc has had it 3 times.
This time I got it 3 days after he tested positive.

I'm sorry. In all seriousness, do your best to stop them from having it again
