[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm pretty happy with the way that Montgomery County has handled the pandemic.  A long long time ago, a wise person told me that when you criticize, you should have alternatives to what you're criticizing if you want to be taken seriously.  So just know that not everyone agrees with the anonymous rage-venting.  Perhaps instead of "talking about recalling" and name calling, the OP could make some well-thought out suggestions that could then be acted upon, or at least seriously considered and possibly even implemented.  Not as much fun, perhaps, as speculating how well people who weren't called upon to handle an unprecedented situation might have handled it -- but it could, potentially, offer something useful.

NP. The county has been needlessly slow to reopen some activities, while rushing to reopen others. Namely, children and families have had to put up with the most sustained restrictions. Things like playgrounds remained closed long after contact transmissions were known not to be a significant source of spread. Yet, it took weeks for the county to update the executive order, and even longer to coordinate with Montgomery Parks before they could actually reopen.

Similarly, child care policies have been a mess, with the county at times lying to parents and providers about what is legally allowed. (Such as right now, where county officials are claiming daycares still can't fully reopen, which is inconsistent with state and county policies and orders which say they can.)

And, perhaps most ridiculous of all, Elrich's decision to prioritize indoor dining, late-night drinking, and concerts over reopening schools.[/quote]
