[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am so at a loss.  All of the data I've seen show that the vaccines are incredibly effective at protecting the person who is vaccinated and reducing transmission.  Having a vaccinated teaching force, combined with APS's mask requirement, cohorting, health screening, distancing, air cleaners, etc, the risk to teachers is insanely low.  Yet my 2nd grader's teacher today told her class that she doesn't want to return to school but that APS is making her.  Putting aside that this was completely inappropriate information to tell to second graders, where is this fear coming from?  She's young and healthy and vaccinated.  Elementary is completely cohorted.  She doesn't have to do concurrent learning.  And her hybrid class is small enough to fit in a single classroom.   Why are all these vaccinated teachers so afraid?  The data is amazing. These vaccines work terrifically well, with strong efficacy starting shortly after the first dose.  I just don't understand.  [/quote]

Actually we don't fully know how well the vaccines work, especially with the mutations.  And, she can still be a carrier and transmit to others.  You may feel safe but its perfectly ok for her not to feel safe.  You don't know her health issues or family history.  If its so safe, you go teach in a classroom.[/quote]
