what did they say?

MCPS IF YOU ARE READING THIS OPEN THE SCHOOLS!!!!![/quote]

At least 6 Beautiful, caring, dedicated professionals dead forever. People with so many more years to live and gifts to share. No we should not open back up until we have the resources to ensure that our teachers, our students and our communities will be safe. https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.washingtonpost.com/nation/2020/09/10/coronavirus-teacher-deaths-fall/%3foutputType=amp[/quote]
Unfortunately, some people exploit these deaths to push their agenda. Most probably, these were not due to any in-person school (wtop was also publishing similar title, but when you read the whole story you realize the teachers were actually doing DL, attending some church events where there was an outbreak, doing some outdoor activity etc.)[/quote]

Typical denier reply. Always look for a way for it not to be true. Sure they weren't living in bubbles but show me the rate for people their ages in their towns. Betcha they are the outliers and the one difference was that [b]they were in classrooms ALL DAY with children[/b]. The fact that you are so dismissive of our teachers and their well being is both base and repugnant. You can reteach math and reading you cannot bring people back to life. [/quote]

This is from the story that I read (don't subscribe to the Post).  You are spreading [b]misinformation.[/b]

"At least four teachers in three states have died after bouts with the coronavirus since the dawn of the new school year, including a 28-year-old third-grade teacher in South Carolina.

One of the teachers is believed to have become infected at a church meeting, while two others were already self-quarantining or in hospital before students and staff returned to the classroom.

It is not known how the other teachers became infected."

This does not support your assertion.[/quote]

Literally all of them died right as school was beginning. Especially for young people, it generally means you got sick a few weeks prior. The only teacher that may have gotten it from a school-like environment based on the article was the coach, and he obviously could have gotten it other places seeing as Mississippi had very high community spread at the time (and still does). The poster clearly didn’t read past the headline. It’s what I HATE about the media. They have made everything about the school debate and COVID so much worse, but it’s our own damn fault because we are intellectually lazy. [/quote]
