[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why do we need to COVID data for teachers that have not returned to school?[/quote]

Because they WILL return and will possibly infect your kids. They can carry the virus even after they are vaccinated - parents please be aware of that. Thank goodness there will be masks, but lunch is VERY concerning. I am not suggesting we don't return, we just need more mitigations in place.[/quote]

It is incredibly unlikely a vaccinated person can infect someone else. It hasn’t been explicitly studied yet, so they can’t say that for sure, but soon it will be. [/quote]

You can’t say it’s incredibly unlikely if we don’t yet know. Some studies have shown that you can still carry the virus in your nasal passages even after you have immunity. Yes more time needs to be taken to study but that’s why we all need to continue the precautions of maxing and social distancing. Just take a look at the travel board and people that think they can go without masks traveling once They get the vaccine. But that’s beside the point of this specific topic. The point, teachers having vaccines will protect them and that’s incredible. However it doesn’t necessarily protect the children, there are so many articles about this. Here’s an article from NPR, of course left-leaning but the information is coming from the CDC.
