[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What about high school graduation? Whitman graduation is tomorrow at 9am at the school [/quote]

A few hours won't kill you.  It won't have any long term impact.

You'll be slightly uncomfortable for a few hours.  That's it[/quote]

This.  Seriously.  I hope they don't cancel high school graduation for this.  People who are concerned can wear a mask.  Or stay home and watch a live stream.  [/quote]

People who are graduating can't stay home and watch a live stream.[/quote]

^^^Neither can faculty or staff who are participating in the graduation ceremony. I don't know what MCPS should do, but I do know that people who say the effects of PM2.5 is "slightly uncomfortable for a few hours" either don't know what they're talking about or are purposely minimizing the problem.[/quote]

MCPS should encourage [b]people who are concerned[/b] to wear a N95 mask and they should allow schools to hold their graduation ceremonies. [/quote]

Yeah, but people who aren't concerned will also experience health effects.[/quote]

MCPS is only responsible for so much of our lives.[/quote]

True. For example, whether or not to hold an outdoor graduation when the air quality is dangerously bad.[/quote]

Dramatic much?

It is not dangerously bad for most people.  Most people will be fine if they hold graduation.  And people who are concerned are welcome to wear masks to make it less dangerous for them.  [/quote]
