[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My concern is that to get over this thing and return to some kind of normal, we really need to be at 30 new cases per million or fewer (hopefully fewer) consistently.

And we are nowhere near that.

And we are trending up not down.

And in just a few weeks we will be returning college kids to campus at the U of MD in College Park.  So I don't see how cases in Prince George's county will possibly go DOWN when that happens.

So when does Prince Georges County get put back on Phase or Stage 1 (all non essential activities shut down again)?

When does Maryland?

I'm just wondering because according to NYS we will soon be one of the states that will be on their quarantine list, if we stay about 100 new cases per day per million (10 new cases per day per 100,000) if this keeps up for a 7 day everage.

Governor Andrew M. Cuomo today announced that three additional states meet the metrics to qualify for the travel advisory requiring individuals who have traveled to New York from those states, all of which have significant community spread, to quarantine for 14 days. The newly-added states are Delaware, Kansas and Oklahoma. [b]The quarantine applies to any person arriving from a state with a positive test rate higher than 10 per 100,000 residents over a 7-day rolling average or a state with a 10 percent or higher positivity rate over a 7-day rolling average.[/b] [/quote]

It's not a good sign for our state.[/quote]

Actually they apparently tested students  and staff on campus now and less than 1% were positive.  If the colleges and universities can get the students to wear their masks, we could end up in a better place.[/quote]
