Taking precautions isn't forever. Remember how sick your families were in December and January? We were fine because we were careful. Once covod had burned through your wretched micoclotting bodies and gone dormant again, we came back to school, masked, and have had a good year.

However, now that cases are going nuts, the question becomes, is it worth taking a week or two at home because mcps will do nothing to stop psychos like your sociopathic children from infecting their classmates and teachers? Quite probably, the answer is yes

Pediatric hospitalizations are just as low now as they were back in February. Kids are doing fine.

Can you show us the data that all kids are fine, and none are having complications due to covid. Or, when they bring covid home, its having no impact on the adults and other family members they live with. You keep using hospitalizations as a talking point but they have always been low for kids. The issue is transmission within MCPS that impacts them, their families and the community. If your grocery store worker gets covid and cannot work for two weeks, its far more of an impact on them, than it would be someone like you. How hard is that to understand? I guess you never get out of your perfectly manicured bubble.

There was higher mortality from the flu in 2017-2018 than we’re seeing from covid now in vaccinated/booster adults. Were you freaking out this much then, too?

Which part of there is more to this than hospitalization. The issue is transmission at school. You don’t even have kids in mcps.

I do have one kid in MCPS and another in Prek.

The issue with covid is severity. That’s what really distinguishes it from other respiratory infections which collectively spread at very high levels. With vaccines and boosters, the severity of covid infections is similar to that of other common respiratory infections, such as the flu.

No. The real issue with COVID is that it does long term damage. (In addition to killing your grandparents, which most people would also consider an issue. But not you!)

You don’t seem to know what long covid given that you’re equating it to long-term damage. I'm not disputing that *some* infections can lead to long-term damage, but *most* long COVID symptoms are mild and resolve within a few months. And the rates of long COVID have been been greatly exaggerated by studies that rely heavily on subjective symptom reporting and that don't include control groups.

It is pretty common for other respiratory infections to result in lingering symptoms. When someone has lingering congestion or a cough for a month after getting a cold, we don't make a big deal about it. The same goes for when someone doesn't feel quite right for a month or two as they're recovering from the flu.

Only *some* cases of polio let to long term damage.

I get it. You really don't want to admit what you've done to your kids.

Yes. It's mitigated very effectively by a mask and eating outdiors.

Sadly, pathetic parents like you tell their kids masks don't work and send them to school sick.

What reaction are you looking for? Mitigation is very important, especially in large schools that MCPS has. Its pretty sad that you don't feel any responsibility to anyone, including your own kids if you even have them. Covid numbers in MCPS are going up. For may alone, we are not looking good.

Not really. A ~20% reduction from mask mandates mostly just means you’d probably just go a little longer between infections. Vaccines/boosters are more effective mitigations.

What makes you think I don’t feel any responsibility? I work in healthcare. Have been on the frontline for 2 years. I guarantee I have done more to help people/keep them safe than you have. And I mean actually WORK, not keyboard warrior BS.
Our family has always followed the current guidelines. My daughter had Covid at the beginning of the year, I have it right now. Son and husband are fine. Because I’m not squawking about bringing mandatory masking back does not make me irresponsible. But you go ahead and keep thinking that if it makes you feel better.

Bragging about how many times you've been irresponsible enough to expose your family to COVID is not the win you think. You followed current guidelines... They didn't work... And your conclusion is we don't need guidelines. I hope when you say "work in healthcare" you mean answer phones, because any medical diagnostic type job in your hands would be alarming

I hope for your family's sake you have a full recovery. I pray you didn't expose too many people on the way down.

Taking precautions isn't forever. Remember how sick your families were in December and January? We were fine because we were careful. Once covod had burned through your wretched micoclotting bodies and gone dormant again, we came back to school, masked, and have had a good year.

However, now that cases are going nuts, the question becomes, is it worth taking a week or two at home because mcps will do nothing to stop psychos like your sociopathic children from infecting their classmates and teachers? Quite probably, the answer is yes

Pediatric hospitalizations are just as low now as they were back in February. Kids are doing fine.

Can you show us the data that all kids are fine, and none are having complications due to covid. Or, when they bring covid home, its having no impact on the adults and other family members they live with. You keep using hospitalizations as a talking point but they have always been low for kids. The issue is transmission within MCPS that impacts them, their families and the community. If your grocery store worker gets covid and cannot work for two weeks, its far more of an impact on them, than it would be someone like you. How hard is that to understand? I guess you never get out of your perfectly manicured bubble.

There was higher mortality from the flu in 2017-2018 than we’re seeing from covid now in vaccinated/booster adults. Were you freaking out this much then, too?

Which part of there is more to this than hospitalization. The issue is transmission at school. You don’t even have kids in mcps.

I do have one kid in MCPS and another in Prek.

The issue with covid is severity. That’s what really distinguishes it from other respiratory infections which collectively spread at very high levels. With vaccines and boosters, the severity of covid infections is similar to that of other common respiratory infections, such as the flu.

No. The real issue with COVID is that it does long term damage. (In addition to killing your grandparents, which most people would also consider an issue. But not you!)

You don’t seem to know what long covid given that you’re equating it to long-term damage. I'm not disputing that *some* infections can lead to long-term damage, but *most* long COVID symptoms are mild and resolve within a few months. And the rates of long COVID have been been greatly exaggerated by studies that rely heavily on subjective symptom reporting and that don't include control groups.

It is pretty common for other respiratory infections to result in lingering symptoms. When someone has lingering congestion or a cough for a month after getting a cold, we don't make a big deal about it. The same goes for when someone doesn't feel quite right for a month or two as they're recovering from the flu.

Only *some* cases of polio let to long term damage.

I get it. You really don't want to admit what you've done to your kids.

The level of risk matters.

Yes. It's mitigated very effectively by a mask and eating outdiors.

Sadly, pathetic parents like you tell their kids masks don't work and send them to school sick.

Not really. A ~20% reduction from mask mandates mostly just means you’d probably just go a little longer between infections. Vaccines/boosters are more effective mitigations.

Obviously.

Why would you think someone advocating for masks and outdoor eating wouldn't also want vaccines and boosters? Oh, wait. I know. Your brain bleed

Then why bother with masks/distancing/quarantines when less disruptive measures, like vaccinations, are more effective and don’t rely on trying to block, the spread of the virus?

You seem to be confused on who the pathetic one is here.

What reaction are you looking for? Mitigation is very important, especially in large schools that MCPS has. Its pretty sad that you don't feel any responsibility to anyone, including your own kids if you even have them. Covid numbers in MCPS are going up. For may alone, we are not looking good.

What makes you think I don’t feel any responsibility? I work in healthcare. Have been on the frontline for 2 years. I guarantee I have done more to help people/keep them safe than you have. And I mean actually WORK, not keyboard warrior BS.
Our family has always followed the current guidelines. My daughter had Covid at the beginning of the year, I have it right now. Son and husband are fine. Because I’m not squawking about bringing mandatory masking back does not make me irresponsible. But you go ahead and keep thinking that if it makes you feel better.

I hope for your family's sake you have a full recovery. I pray you didn't expose too many people on the way down.

Where do you get that I’m bragging about exposing my family? I work in healthcare (a doctor - not phones, sorry to disappoint; don’t care about your alarm), it would be impossible not to expose them at this point. I still don’t think we need new guidelines.

Given how often your family has had it, that’s the exact reason we need more mitigation.
