MCPS covid cases

It's true that most people with chronic health issues do not spend their time posting "People should behave better! YOU are the problem!" posts anonymously on DCUM.

Right. So the fact that the pp does says something about her.

You absolutely can control covid with behavior. Look at how other countries are. I will continue to keep my kids safe and covid free. They understand the severity of covid and are decent people. You should try raising your kids to be decent people by setting a good example.

Its funny as so many scream it takes a village to raise kids but when the village needs to come together the village is no longer and its every person to themselves (except for the carpool and babysitting demands but those who demand a village as its free child care but never actually return the support).

You can reduce the risk, but you can't eliminate the risk. Sometimes bad things happen to good people. Sometimes good things happen to bad people!

Actually, we could come close to eliminating the risk. But, that village really isn't a village and only cares about what that village will do for them, so its going to spread and mutate.

How can we come close to eliminating risk in MoCo? What's your plan that nobody else has thought of?

Behavior.

How do you get more appropriate behavior from those who refuse to behave?

Shame them on Facebook.

But really if you want schools, you gotta shit everything else down until the delta wave subsides. Can’t have everything.

We have schools. Despite MCPS's overzealousness with quarantines, most kids are still in-person. But anyway, that's why nobody takes your type of posts seriously. How are you going to pay for everything being shut down? What shutdown exceptions are you going to make? How are you going to enforce it? Infection rates are already so low in MoCo...so how much are you going to incrementally accomplish by locking people away?

MCPS is barely quarantining. Covid is serious. If parents cannot be responsible in their behavior and their kids behavior this is going to keep happening and reducing quarantine is only going to make things worse given how easily covid spreads.

There should be mandatory twice weekly testing, social distancing and much more to help stop the spread. But, there isn't. So, you have your in person school so stop complaining already. You got what you wanted and its still not good enough.

This. Given that we know covid is airborne and can travel through the air ducts, they should really be sending the whole school home for a positive case. Might change behavior finally.

Why stop there? Quarantine the whole county. Shut it all down. We’re not going to get to Covid zero while hospitals, police/fire departments, grocery stores, etc., keep operating. It’s not society’s job to bail people out of their responsibility. to care for spouses and parents, protect their family, and forage/hunt for food. If you love your family, you’ll find away. Unless you’re lazy or too busy looking up your own ailments on WebMD.

Yep, apparently we can get this down to zero if we just "behave better". Everybody should stop going to work. Start growing potatoes in your backyard. Capture rainwater for drinking since water plant workers will be home too. Use the falling autumn leaves to wipe your butt because the supply chain will come to a halt. It takes a village, but you need to be entirely self sufficient within that village. Really, just behave better or something!

Exactly. It’s so frustrating to see people go to the hospital when they’re sick. It’s like they don’t even care about potentially spreading Covid. Do your part- stay at home.

With children making us 1/3 of the county cases right now, good idea. Kids are holding back the entire county.

I've decided I like you. I can't tell if you're truly talented troll or a hypochondriac with social anxiety disorder, but either way you're pretty entertaining.

I am neither. But, you clear are. I am someone with common sense who doesn't want people to get sick, especially kids nor do I. I have long term health issues and you don't get how bad it can get till you go through it. You don't care, which is why we have the thread and issues we do. Precautions, common sense and caring about others would go a long way. I think its sad how people here scream about mental health and expect the school to take care of it and that speaks volumes of who they are and how they parent. Its sad people think schools should be responsible for everyone one and every thing. Its only a village when they are the ones who take advantage of others to raise their kids. People aren't setting a good example on teaching kids how to be responsible, care about others and just common sense. Other countries have it under control as they put effort into it. We have put zero effort beyond vaccinates and clearly they help with hospitalization but they aren't helping with the spread when numbers are very high given what they were this time last year. We aren't in this together. Its sad when you read posts here that parents think nothing of sending their kids in sick, refuse to get them mental health treatment, therapies, tutoring that they need and if its not done by the school during school hours, kids go without. Its even sad how many wealthy families are demanding their kids be fed three meals a day at school as they cannot be bothered when ew should be giving that extra food to families who need it vs. lazy families.

Huh? Wasn't this a USDA grant or something? Believe me, I would vastly prefer that my child was not offering sugary drinks and breakfast upon entering the classroom. And we aren't "wealthy" either. The entire school meal program is more about subsidizing big-ag than actually providing healthy, nutritious foods to kids that need them.

Lol, yeah, I agree. That's a bad take from PP. There was not a single demand for that to happen. It just was a byproduct of the funding

In fact, you would think kids that had been FARMS kids would be happy everyone is getting a free meal now. It reduces the stigma. They are no longer "different"

[Anonymous]

MCPS meals generally taste horrible according to DC and friends. Its hard to believe that people awarding contacts aren’t getting kickbacks.

Yawn. Who cares. Endemic. Yada yada. Noise.

Unless you’re lazy or too busy looking up your own ailments on WebMD.

Yep, apparently we can get this down to zero if we just "behave better". Everybody should stop going to work. Start growing potatoes in your backyard. Capture rainwater for drinking since water plant workers will be home too. Use the falling autumn leaves to wipe your butt because the supply chain will come to a halt. It takes a village, but you need to be entirely self sufficient within that village. Really, just behave better or something!

You are entirely missing the point.

That’s right. They should be locking those kids into their rooms for another 18 months so they don’t give vaccinated people a cold.

Which is what?

I get you’re scared. I don’t know what health conditions you have, or how serious they actually are, but you seem to have a lot of anxiety over them. What I don’t get, though, is why you want to take everyone else- including kids- down with you. If you’re scared, stay home. Wear protective equipment when you need to leave. But it isn’t reasonable to everyone else to sacrifice another 18 months to protect you. It’s time you protect yourself.

It takes a village, but you need to be entirely self sufficient within that village. Really, just behave better or something!

You are entirely missing the point.

Which is what?

I get you’re scared. I don’t know what health conditions you have, or how serious they actually are, but you seem to have a lot of anxiety over them. What I don’t get, though, is why you want to take everyone else- including kids- down with you. If you’re scared, stay home. Wear protective equipment when you need to leave. But it isn’t reasonable to everyone else to sacrifice another 18 months to protect you. It’s time you protect yourself.

I don’t have anxiety and we are taking precautions. No one sacrificed anything. We had no restrictions here. You can still get Covid vaccinated. Kids are not vaccinated. You don’t care about anyone but yourself, not even your kids.

You absolutely can control covid with behavior. Look at how other countries are. I will continue to keep my kids safe and covid free. They understand the severity of covid and are decent people. You should try raising your kids to be decent people by setting a good example.

Its funny as so many scream it takes a village to raise kids but when the village needs to come together the village is no longer and its every person to themselves (except for the carpool and babysitting demands but those who demand a village as its free child care but never actually return the support).

You can reduce the risk, but you can't eliminate the risk. Sometimes bad things happen to good people. Sometimes good things happen to bad people!

Actually, we could come close to eliminating the risk. But, that village really isn't a village and only cares about what that village will do for them, so its going to spread and mutate.

How can we come close to eliminating risk in MoCo? What's your plan that nobody else has thought of?

Behavior.

How do you get more appropriate behavior from those who refuse to behave?

Shame them on Facebook.

But really if you want schools, you gotta shit everything else down until the delta wave subsides. Can’t have everything.

We have schools. Despite MCPS's overzealousness with quarantines, most kids are still in-person. But anyway, that's why nobody takes your type of posts seriously. How are you going to pay for everything being shut down? What shutdown exceptions are you going to make? How are you going to enforce it? Infection rates are already so low in MoCo...so how much are you going to incrementally accomplish by locking people away?

MCPS is barely quarantining. Covid is serious. If parents cannot be responsible in their behavior and their kids behavior this is going to keep happening and reducing quarantine is only going to make things worse given how easily covid spreads.

There should be mandatory twice weekly testing, social distancing and much more to help stop the spread. But, there isn't. So, you have your in person school so stop complaining already. You got what you wanted and its still not good enough.

This. Given that we know covid is airborne and can travel through the air ducts, they should really be sending the whole school home for a positive case. Might change behavior finally.

With children making us 1/3 of the county cases right now, good idea. Kids are holding back the entire county.

Kids are not to blame. Parents are.

That’s right. They should be locking those kids into their rooms for another 18 months so they don’t give vaccinated people a cold.

Covid denier, it’s not a cold. Your kids hide in their room because they hate being around you.
