[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. [b]Congrats to everyone who pressed for virtual. [/b]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]

What does this mean? People who "pressed for" schools to go virtual by these 5% metrics that were set weeks (months?) ago?

Or people who "pressed" for virtual to ever be an option, instead of "Oh well, too bad, doesn't matter if 100% of people have COVID, your only option is in-person?

This is some weird twisting of logic.

A couple of weeks ago, before break, most people weren't paying all that much attention to this. They weren't too heated because they hoped or assumed the rate wouldn't rise above 5%. Now nothing has changed except the rate has increased, quite predictably.

But the anger at having to go virtual is being aimed at people who didn't influence the development of the metric at all.

I want my kid's school to go virtual for 2-4 weeks, given the circumstances at the moment. But I had no influence on creating this policy, nor did I help to spread COVID, because we haven't been anywhere in weeks except to visit only my very COVID conservative parents, stay inside their house, and return right after.

How is someone like me responsible for any of this?

Did I will it to happen?[/quote]
