I don’t know- you’d have to ask the person that originally brought up MA cases. You'd think she'd be relieved to hear that MA didn't have a 3.4x increase in cases. |

I hope our R-Naughty poster hasn’t spent all week terrified for Massachusetts, but their data is showing no signs of the Memorial Day spike she claimed was happening. The day after Memorial Day showed about the same number of cases before.

Since the cases have dropped off significantly (only 58 new infections) and the % of schools with >=4 infections is under 10%, the assumption is that this BA.2 / BA.2.12.1 wave is coming to a close.
Unless there are cases reported for BA.4 or BA.5, there should (hopefully) not be another spike before the end of the school year. If this changes, will open a new thread for BA.4 or BA.5. |

Yesterday's (Monday) data - 166 students and 18 staff. The highest 10-day is 43, and highest % is 3.7%.
If it looks like it's climbing, will start up the data again. |
|
That’s the spirit! If it ain’t bad news then it isn’t worth reporting!
No wonder people have such a skewed view of Covid. |
So MCPS didn't change a thing, and numbers predictably and cyclically get better. Why not report that each day as well? |
6/7 (Tuesday) new infections 120 students, 13 staff. The highest 10-day is 43, and highest % is 3.7%. |
| Memorial Day weekend a lot of folks at Churchill traveled. It is not from school |
6/8 (Wednesday) new infections 89 students, 18 staff, The highest 10-day is 46, and highest % is 4.6%. It's a slight uptick, but given there's only a week to go, overall not bad at all. Looks like MCPS so far dodged the BA.4 / BA.5 bullet. Thank you to the P's and teachers who are keeping the kids outside, encouraging continued mask use, and cleaning indoors as much as possible. Your efforts are much appreciated! |
Before Memorial Day, people traveled for Spring Break which started the surge. Then at Churchill, students showed up to AP tests and Prom with COVID. There was no requirement for masks so most did not. |
