[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I was watching the press conference but had to drop - there was a report the Superintendent was waving around.  Does that contain the information about school not coming back until MD reaches Stage 3?  Anyone know where we can find that report?[/quote]

Did she actually say anything about phase 3? Phase 3 is all undefined anyway. Just like the rest of it. I’m guessing they start rushing the phases as people get tired of this. They’re already starting to.[/quote]

The report hasn't been posted yet. Hopefully in the next day or two. Hogan is following Hopkins' 3 phase guidance (https://governor.maryland.gov/wp-content/uploads/2020/04/MD_Strong.pdf) which states that schools can start to open during Phase II but with physical distancing limitations.

Phase III is outlined in this document as looking forward to a time when a vaccine is available. WTF?! Did they really say phase 3 in the press conference?

PP advice again - this doc on page 10 outlines in more detail: https://www.aei.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/03/National-Coronavirus-Response-a-Road-Map-to-Recovering-2.pdf [/quote]

Has this American Enterprise Institute document been adopted as official policy? Or is it just their own recommendations?[/quote]

If you follow the links from the governors page that’s where it takes you. So yes, I assume.[/quote]

I read the entire report and yes, Hogan is using AEI, Hopkins and White House as guidelines for re-opening the state. [/quote]

Got it. So those three were the sources of information on which Hogan's document was constructed, and that one provides the official guidance for the state of MD.

It just wasn't totally clear why PP was posting links to non-MD source, but I get it now.[/quote]

Im the PP that posted them. The MD strong report doesn’t define the phases just refers to those documents for the definitions.[/quote]
