[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Also, we can't say definitively that the teacher got infected at school.  We know people in AZ have not really been staying home, so it's possible she could have got it somewhere else.[/quote]

It doesn’t matter where she got it.  The result will be the same for hybrid/in person.  The class/school will shut down for 14 days minimum.   [b]I don’t know why people are harping in getting it at school.[/b] It does not change the result. [/quote]

People are posting this story as supposed proof that it is unsafe for teachers to be in the school building (in support of 100% DL).  People are pointing out that she may have gotten it elsewhere.[/quote]

But the other two teachers almost certainly got it from her.  So 2/3 teachers in this story got the virus in the classroom despite masks and social distancing.  It's evidence that if you're spending multiple hours in a small enclosed spaces with an infectious person, you're likely to get infected despite masks and social distancing.  Those are strategies designed for brief interactions, like the grocery store, not hours and hours in the same classroom. [/quote]
