[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]KJMS is having a testing event after school today. If your kid isn't showing any symptoms, why would you test them? [/quote]

Because some people are asymptomatic and unknowingly spreading it.  Do your part for the community and get tested. [/quote]

Nope, we've done our part. We socially distanced, masked, sent the kid to virtual school in 2020-21, got vax'd asap. Is he is asymptomatic, or has mild cold symptoms, he is going to school. Fever or vomiting, I'll keep him home, but otherwise we are done. [/quote]

Yeah, screw u teacher’s mother who lives with her and the teacher’s aid with a kidney transplant. We’re done thinking about you.  Geezus, you people are sick. Be responsible adults. [/quote]

As a teacher with a parent in cancer treatment, I don’t care if they test or not. I assume I am exposed every single day. It’s important that I am not around my parent if I am sick. Being around sick kids is part of being a teacher and no, I’m not teaching in a mask. I have been a lot sicker and so have my own kids for regular colds this spring than we were with covid.  My parents also had covid and their symptoms were mild. [/quote]

Well lucky for your mother, she doesn’t live with you. For a teacher, your reading and critical thinking skills are disappointing. [/quote]

My cancer patient mother (who lived with us) got pneumonia from a common cold pre-Covid. And there was no vaccine for that cold! It’s unfortunate that there is yet another virus in circulation, but sickness is a part of life and the vaccines work very well. They largely even work for people who are immunocompromised (I.e., cancer patients). You can’t expect people to alter their lives indefinitely for what is effectively a cold for most people now.

[b]Are you also a climate change denier?  [/b]Like it or not, reality has changed and our behaviour must also change if we are to be responsible with ourselves, our families, and our communities. Sickness is indeed a part of life. But this COVID virus still circulating is (a) preventable with vaccines and masks when in public and (b) often more severe than "common cold," especially for immonocomproised. For the sake of everyone you love - and your stgdents who may be influenced by you! - please do the reading and stop acting as if we can go back to some sort of pre-pandemic reality.[/quote]

Where the hell do you get that?

And no, masks won’t stop the spread of Covid. Sounds like you are the one in denial lady.[/quote]

Are we seriously back to the “masks don’t work” stage? Ugh[/quote]
