Montgomery County Public Schools (MCPS)
Here's a basic fact: no pediatric deaths from Covid in Moco....EVER! Going back to March 2020. You guys watch the news, and get spun up into a tizzy over Lousiana and other redneck backwards places and don't realize that actually live in MoCo! One of the most intelligent and educated locations in the county, and with the worst ability to manage their anxiety |
Which hospital in MoCo has reached capacity? And which MCPS school is currently closed due to COVID quarantine? |
Here comes “It’s not just about death, it’s about long Covid” whiner. Then comes, “it’s about public health (and schools should be closed no matter that everything else is open)” whiner. There’s literally a Whiner’s Playbook. |
Don’t forget about the Moving the Goalposts Whiner. S/he’s my favorite. |
That’ll into play when the pediatric vaccine gets the EUA, and there will be whining that it’s still not good enough. That we need a 100% vaccine with at least two years of data showing that. |
Two years? Are you crazy? 20, minimum. |
That particular goal post will be moved multiple times. The day one goal post move will be that the EUA isn’t good enough; it needs full approval. |
So do you have to wait until hospitals are at capacity and schools to be closed (after the spread) to take preventive measures? |
Here is a basic fact! It doesn't matter if there are no deaths here yet as it will happen at some point! And, our kids aren't vaccinated. How is that so hard to understand? |

Almost like clockwork
Has the Delta-fueled Covid-19 surge in the U.S. finally peaked? The number of new daily U.S. cases has risen less over the past week than at any point since June. There is obviously no guarantee that the trend will continue. But there is one big reason to think that it may and that caseloads may even soon decline. Since the pandemic began, Covid has often followed a regular — if mysterious — cycle. In one country after another, the number of new cases has often surged for roughly two months before starting to fall. The Delta variant, despite its intense contagiousness, has followed this pattern. In the U.S. states where Delta first caused caseloads to rise, the cycle already appears to be on its downside. Case numbers in Arkansas, Florida, Louisiana, Mississippi and Missouri peaked in early or mid-August and have since been falling: |
Not until after Labor Day will we see the peak at schools |
I remember in December 2019 when the nine-year-old was killed after getting off her school bus, and DCUM insisted that it was a freak accident and there was no need to change anything about anything. |
It will be your wet dream come true won’t it? |
The PP seems to think covid cares if you are the child of an educated person or redneck. It does not. |
| I'm very concerned about the covid outbreaks but encouraged, so far, that they seem limited to 1 per school vs an outbreak of 30 kids at once. But we are just seeing the beginning. |
