Jesus H. The power of denial. So strong.

school closure last year was a mistake. A huge mistake. And most everyone is starting to realize that it did almost nothing to stop the spread and came at an enormous cost to students.

I know its hard to admit that you were wrong. But you were. very very wrong.

Those that wanted to open in Sept 2020 were right. And their predictions about learning loss, mental health, development, etc all, sadly, came true

The lockdowners will never admit they were wrong. That would mean coming to terms with harming 160,000 kids for no reason.

It's a really dumb debate and has been oversimplified horribly. In places that provided real mitigations, schools could have opened sooner, no question. In places that did hardly any, harm was done. Time to use our lessons learned and move forward and insist on keeping schools open the right way.

You make a good point.

But here, in MoCo, almost nobody was advocating to just throw the doors open. Almost everyone, including the organized groups, wanted it open, with mitigations.

But they were all accused of being "teacher-killers" or wanting "dead children in the hallways"

It was near impossible to have the conversation about how to open because those want to say remote refused to come to the conversation in good faith.

We have very little in terms of mitigation except masking, which is inconsistent in school.

I don't get why you are debating this. Any of us who didn't feel safe to return, choose to remain in virtual. Simple. You are creating problems that aren't there. If cases go up, there is little testing, so MCPS will not know and not close. So, move on already.

One reason our numbers were lower was because schools were not in person.

If it were really true that MCPS wasn't doing any mitigations, that would simply even more strongly suggest covid isn't a concern in schools.

Though in reality, MCPS has been aggressively enforcing quarantine requirements, implementing cohorting to varying degrees, and coercively enrolling students in surveillance testing.

I know you need to constantly work at convincing yourself that in-person school is dangerous to justify the harm you're doing to your children, but you should at least get your facts straight.

No the difference is most adults and older students are vaccinated.

My child are harmed by people like you who don’t take Covid seriously.

Considering no one in my family has had covid, I don't see how you could possibly suggest I've done anything to harm your kids. That's all on you. Get them vaccinated and get yourself boosted.

Right as it’s just as simple as vaccines.

I really don’t understand how long it is going to take before people figure this out. We’re ultimately trying to prevent severe outcomes, and the vaccines are quite good at that. The benefit against infection/transmission is the cherry on top.

Lots of kids are falling sick, including my whole family due to exposure to my daughter. Because of this, my youngest, who was supposed to get her covid shot, instead got a PCR test. I have violent gastro issues like the stomach bug but it is covid. Now, my class is quarantined until I test negative. I am pissed!!! What parent allows their kid to do this????

While this does not surprise me, where are the positives on the mcps dashboard.

One will get some immunity from the infection but not the sickness, right? Or is it even possible to neutralize the virulent part of its RNA to turn it into some kind of live vaccine?

It would be funny if it works that way. All the anti-vaxxers and anti-maskers will get vaccinated by breathing.

And vaccinated will get it too.

Since omicron does not cause serious illnesses the more the merrier. It’s the best and most economic form of herd immunity considering the low vaccination rate worldwide.

Surely you jest?

DP, and while I wouldn’t go quite that far yet, I see their point. If things aren’t good enough going into Omicron, I really don’t know what it is going to take for people to move on. Highly effective vaccines weren’t enough, so I guess we need to break people’s fears of case numbers (or at least give them a new anchor point to compare against) along with more infection-acquired immunity. It looks like Omicron might provide those while being generally less severe than Delta. Maybe. We’ll probably know a lot more in a few weeks.

Do you think the main issue is people not moving on? I don't understand. Are you saying the real problem is psychological and not the virus itself?

Yes, I’m more concerned about society’s ability to move on than I am about Covid at this point. Covid isn’t going away, yet many people have shown no acceptance of that or been able to articulate in any meaningful way what it will take to allow normal lives to resume. We still have kids quarantine for 10-14 days, even if they’re asymptomatic and test negative. And we have people seemingly seriously talking about closing schools. It is crazy. You were never guaranteed a risk-free life. Deal with it.

You are right that most people shouldn’t be over-concerned about covid for themselves. But our society has plenty with health issues such that covid could be lethal to them (even with vaccination). Are we all selfish?

And those people have decisions to make for themselves. Their other conditions presumably make them higher-risk of health complications for things besides Covid as well, so the concept of risk management shouldn’t be entirely foreign to them. There are a variety of things that high-risk individuals can do for themselves without expecting everyone else to manage their risks for them. People can self-isolate indefinitely, to varying degrees. Or they could wear protective equipment to protect themselves from infection. They can get vaccinated and boosted, and be mindful of symptoms so that they could get monoclonal antibodies early if needed.

I cannot get a doctor to treat me for my regular health issues so you really think I'm going to get an antibody treatment... yea, right. And, in MoCo people mask but not all wear them properly. At some point, every once in a while you do need to go out for groceries, medication, doctor/dental appointments.

You live in a very privileged world. Must be nice.

You know monoclonal antibodies are free, right?

Regardless, what’s your plan then? With Covid never going away, how do you plan to live the rest of your life?

By tormenting you with endless school closings. Next one coming right up...

Luckily the state is in control of school closures, not MCPS itself. You're not going to see broad closures again now that we know how hard it is to get teachers working again.

Is the bitterness necessary? FYI, most MCPS teachers worked really hard during virtual school.

Yeah the anti-teacher vitriol in MCPS is really gross. Truly.

It’s a brand new vaccine and the safety for kids has not really been determined yet. Once all of you get your kids vaccinated so you can resume your risky behavior, there will be more data for the rest of us. Thanks!!

It's a vax built on 15 years of research starting with the first SARS.

15 years of research is good but that is not the point. We don’t know long term safety.

This just happened today and positive notifications are being sent out as children go into quarantine. The link providing support therapy, and academic notes and assignments were mailed to us today. The dashboard should be updated soon.

That is not good. Feel better. Maybe you should come join us in virtual. A few parents here have been clear they would.

Responsible parents take their kids to test or do a home test. Where we get tested its generally 12 hours or less.

OK, but that still doesn’t seem consistent with the timeline.

And I'm not sure where you're getting results back same-day. My pediatrician's office can run PCRs quickly, but only if you get in for an appointment. If you're lucky you might get in at the end of the day if you call early in the morning.

OP I have a kid at PHS. Would you care to share which class? My son hasn’t heard any of this. He’s a 9th grade Global student.

Some of the cases of sick kids are now being confirmed as positive, such as the ones who were selected to quarantine on Friday. My daughter went to school and was sent home after first period as they are contact tracing. I left work not feeling great and picked up both daughters and we all got tested this afternoon as well as my husband. We will know tomorrow. My daughter's have light coughs and runny nose but the youngest had a cold last week and was out. I have gastro issues and malaise. My husband started hacking two nights ago but he says he dies not feel unwell. We should.know tomorrow but are being responsible and all staying home to prevent possible spread as we should.
