Hogan and others refused to restrict businesses in time, so I said before Christmas that an organized pivot to virtual would be necessary for two weeks in January, to mitigate hospital saturation and ensure that families could plan.

Parents yelled that it wasn't fair that schools should close before businesses, some claimed they preferred the daily uncertainty and potential chaos, others said they'd already closed too long in 2020-21, etc...

I know some families are regretting that a better planned and organized pivot wasn't executed.

It's sad that people come up with reasons that have nothing to do with our current situation (continuity of learning) to reject common sense measures. We didn't need to shut down for Delta, despite the spike in cases and hospitalizations. [b]We needed to shut down briefly for Omicron, given the historic peak of hospitalizations.

No, we didn't. MCPS isn't responsible for hospital capacity. What does that have to do with quarantine (not illness)-driven Zoom capacity?[/quote]
