Just five days after students returned to school in Montgomery County, Maryland, approximately 1,000 students and staff are in quarantine.
As dozens of reports of individuals who’ve tested positive for COVID-19 at Montgomery County schools are recorded, the school system updated the quarantine guidance for unvaccinated students.

“We understand the concern. We understand the disruption for families, but we have to ensure the safety of our students and staff,” schools spokesperson Gboyinde Onijala told WTOP.
The school system is ensuring that there’s continuation of instruction and minimal disruption by having students still interacting live with their teachers.
Superintendent Dr. Monifa McKnight sent an update Friday night explaining that the updated policy comes “under the direction of the Montgomery County Department of Health and Human Services” and that it’s “in alignment” with state health and education agencies.

最典型的是一个年轻的护士（30+），第一轮就打疫苗了。她大约3周前开始有轻微症状，COVID阳性，在家隔离。约2周前突然在家失去知觉，马上叫救护车去急症，气管插管上呼吸机。诊断急性缺血性中风，马上进行介入取栓。治疗及时，很快就拔管了，现在在做rehab治疗。医院已经开始恢复去年高峰时候的防疫手段，马上就会要求所有医护工作人员必须打疫苗。我知道的医护也都重新开始使用已经被去年的高峰期证明确实有效的个人保护措施，而且对所有可疑病人都按COVID阳性对待，不管他们是否打过疫苗。
真是防不胜防啊！还好这个病人是插管在呼吸机上的，病人的呼吸是经过一个密封的系统，基本不排出在室内。
