Huh? No — outdoor dining is allowed in MoCo.


But I literally just got an email from Elrich saying he’s maintaining the stay at home order.


That’s because he’s a moron. I’m sorry, but it’s true.

We’re under a stay at home order (not the “safer at home” thing Hogan is doing) and yet all this stuff is open?


What are you talking about? The stay-at-home order was lifted in Montgomery County.


No it wasn’t. Elrich reiterated it yesterday: https://content.govdelivery.com/accounts/MDMONTGOMERY/bulletins/28f16c5


The County Executive is being loose with terminology in that announcement, which I'll also note doesn't carry the force of law.

The confusing thing is that there's a distinction between the series of executive orders that have been informally referred to as the "stay-at-home order" and the specific language that ordered people to stay in their homes unless they were performing one of the "essential activities" identified in the order.

MoCo Executive Order 067-20 (Effective 5-15-20) included the stay-at-home language. However, this paragraph was removed when the order was amended by MoCo Executive Order 070-20 (Effective 6-1-20).


However, because Executive Order 070-20 still contains restrictions on activities, mostly as they relate to businesses, it is still informally referred to as the "stay-at-home order," even though the board stay-at-home paragraph is no longer part of the order.

It’s stupid to call it a stay at home order when there are so many things that are allowed now. It just makes him look stupid.

Not only that, but at this point the order mainly isn't *allowing* specific activities, it's instead *prohibiting* a set of activities. If an activity isn't specifically addressed by the order (or some other regulation from the state/county), then it's allowed. The prohibitions mainly apply to businesses, rather than personal activities.

Dashboard update:

We are maxed out at 14 days of decline out of the last 14 days, with the exception of:

Acute care bed utilization, which is at 2/14. However, the 3-day average is 71%, just above the benchmark of 70%. Moreover, 70% is normal, pre-pandemic utilization.

Cases, which are at 6/14. However, with positivity rates down and testing up, more cases are the result of more testing.

So really, the dashboard is about as good as it’s going to get.

I think you're underestimating the NIMBY/anti-development/secretly-racist vote in MoCo.

Yes the NIMBY / anti development / anti purple line (don’t want someone different than me in our neighborhood). They are content as they telework in their expensive houses and groceries delivered that Moco is locked down. They are happy waiting for the vaccine. It’s all over the neighborhood listserv ‘s

I don't think the poster claiming the stay-at-home order is still in effect is coming back. I wonder if he/she actually thought it was still in effect, or if he/she just wanted us to think that.

Did you read my follow-up post above? The "stay-at-home order" paragraph is no longer in the "stay at home" executive order. He's being lose with his terminology.

There's no longer any legal order to stay in your homes unless you're conducting essential activities. That came out with the 6-1-2020 executive order.

Are you actually reading the executive orders? Or just reading the summaries/press releases? I linked to the orders in my earlier post.

If it’s not actually in place, he shouldn’t say it is. He’s an idiot who doesn’t know how to speak clearly.

The way I understand it, there are additional permitted activities now. The original stay at home was pretty restrictive- you could leave for exercise, essential shopping, work. Now stuff like outdoor dining, more curbside pickup, haircuts, and protesting is allowed.

Yes, so then it’s asinine to stay “we are maintaining the stay at home order.” WTF does that mean in this context?!

Elrich is an idiot and we shouldn’t really be listening to him at all. Despite all the permitted activities the county playgrounds are still fenced off. It’s clear he doesn’t care about children at this point.
