[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There is no plot to sabotage in-person learning by infecting everyone with covid. Are you Tucker Carlson? Because you sound like him, sad crazy provocateur person.

What there is, is some epic failure and miscommunication on so many levels and everywhere. [/quote]

No other district in the country is sending kids home this way. [/b]Not in a conservative-located district, nor a liberal-located district. MoCo/MCPS is not smarter than everybody else. In fact, all we've seen is the opposite from the very beginning. Classrooms/kids will be inappropriately held hostage waiting for a single person to get tested (or not).  This is terrible, operationally-asinine policy. Yes, they are actively sabotaging in-person. [/quote]

I mean, kinda? But for vaccinated students who are contacts, FCPS is making them stay home until their adults upload proof of vaccination status and fill out a form confirming they're asymptomatic. MCPS isn't doing that, at least not yet.

I like this policy![/quote]

Why?[/quote]
NP here. Because this policy means that fully vaccinated students without symptoms are not dependent on a symptomatic student getting a negative test result in order to return to class.

I wish the schools and health department would just coordinate and proactively identify who is vaccinated and who isn't. It's already in the state immunization record database, and the school nurses already check vaccination records. Start with knowing who isn't vaccinated, and focus on them for contact tracing. And follow up with targeted information about how to get vaccinated. [/quote]
