Teachers are moving the goalposts and it pisses me off. Not til we are vaccinated! Not til my household is vaccinated! Not til the kids are vaccinated!
My kids will not go to school for an entire year. A whole year. This is insane. |
They want to sink an entire generation? |
Some experts are saying that kids might not need to be vaccinated at all, once adults are vaccinated and the numbers go down. |
Teachers are NOT making these decisions. APS is making them. And if APS sets a date those teachers who can and want to will take leave or quit. You can keep blaming them for the pandemic but it’s not their fault. |
Yes! It’s enough. It’s embarrassing. Please don’t judge all 3,000 of us on 10 whack jobs. We’ve got a vaccine, we’re going back. |
And that is also true. |
I’m a teacher- we’re not doing that. A) We don’t have that much power, B) most of us are fine going back- the vaccine made a difference, and C) the “goal posts” are metrics- as more people are vaccinated, we’ll meet them. APS had always wanted to and will open, I assure you. |
Your anger is Ill placed on teachers. You should be emailing Bridget loft who is responsible for this learning disaster and the superintendent. The teachers are not making these decisions. Now they’re stuck with this new concurrent model that is horrible for everyone involved. I can’t imagine the stress theyre under with managing and in person classroom, virtual classroom, and a-hole parents |
It would be incredibly unusual for a vaccine to prevent you from getting sick but, at the same time, not prevent you from transmitting to someone else. No vaccine in the history of vaccines has ever worked that way. I’m so sick of teachers clamping into any reason to avoid going in person. |
Uh. Are you from APE? Please read. That is indeed the current understanding of these vaccines. |
That info came from Fauci!! He said we don’t know yet and that it can be possible to carry/shed even after being vaccinated. This is not the same kind of vaccine as flu, etc. as thus uses mRNA. “mRNA vaccines are a new type of vaccine to protect against infectious diseases. To trigger an immune response, many vaccines put a weakened or inactivated germ into our bodies. Not mRNA vaccines. Instead, they teach our cells how to make a protein—or even just a piece of a protein—that triggers an immune response inside our bodies. That immune response, which produces antibodies, is what protects us from getting infected if the real virus enters our bodies.” |
NP. No it is not. The understanding is that they didn't have time to study whether or not you could transmit. But in all likelihood, they do prevent transmission, they just don't know for sure. |
You can not be serious. |
100% serious |
Thanks. I could have avoided wasting my time getting that Ph.D. in biochemistry if I had only knew you then. Here’s a good article for you to read from the New England Journal of Medicine. https://www.nejm.org/covid-vaccine/faq?campai...8b6a240ed4a6f9dc55c0 |
