[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is complete BS. Everyone will be red and in virtual until Spring. This is a way to be open and not be open at the same time. Congrats to everyone who pressed for virtual. This sucks big time. MCPS is a joke. Education has become a joke. Everyone knows that the green schools will be red in a matter of days. [/quote]

Yep, the virtual crowd won. MCPS manufactured a system to backdoor into virtual.[/quote]

I don't see it that way.  If anything, it will discourage people from reporting so we will have lower estimates to keep schools open[/quote]

I don't know what to think honestly. On the one hand, I am very angry and am tempted to view this as a backdoor way to close schools while they say they are keeping them open. On the other hand, I like to think MCPS has gotten the message that schools need to be open and will realize in a couple of weeks this system is flawed and figure a way to pivot out of it. [b]Arbitrary metrics for closing make no sense as they do not take into account changing information and the fact that this variant is no worse for children than other variants[/b].[/quote]

This is where you are incorrect.  There are more hospitalizations with omicron in pediatric populations. As a hospitalist, I do want things to be different, but that is what is happening on the ground.[/quote]

Not true. You're experience "on the ground" does not reflect the data.

Our data collection is a mess but I no longer deal with those who aren’t in the thick of it. Here are the data.  And hospitals arevv Cho overwhelmed regardless.   But please go on from your cushy couch angry that you have to dorms more time with your kid. https://healthdata.gov/Health/COVID-19-Community-Profile-Report/gqxm-d9w9[/quote]
