[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Plus, I really don't understand all these democrats arguing for more anti-covid measures when it's largely republicans that are dying.

Maybe they aren't sociopaths who discount a person's death based on their voting habits?[/quote]

But those people have the ability to get vaccinated.  Demanding anti-covid measures to protect people who decided not to get vaccinated is nonsensical.

People who are double vaccinated, have had a booster, and wear a high quality mask are at extremely low risk even if they encounter unvaccinated people.  It is not necessary to continue with a bunch of restrictions.  [/quote]

Perhaps under normal circumstances.  Perhaps not if, as teachers say, they are crowded 25-35 people in a room with 30 of those people who are unvaccinated.  I don't want my kid in that mix unmasked, either.[/quote]

You have every right to tell your kid to wear a mask.  However, it's not reasonable to force everyone else to do it as well. [/quote]Actually it is because it is for the common good.  However, I have a feeling that you don't value the common good ...[/quote]

Forcing everyone into various restrictions indefinitely is not promoting the common good.

People who are boosted and wear a high quality mask are very low risk.  [/quote]

Soooooo...you take that risk.  There is no way you can force someone else, namely a teacher, to take that risk for you.  See how that works?  If you're willing to take the risk, then go teach.  If you're not willing to take the risk, then don't tell others what risk level is acceptable for them.  I'm a teacher.  Your "low risk" level is too high for me.  [b]Try to force me to teach in a classroom without every student masked, and watch me walk out the door.[/b][/quote]

Perhaps that is the solution?  The idea that a class of children should be obligated to wear masks indefinitely to accommodate you is nonsense. [/quote]

Darling, there are not swaths of eager teachers waiting in the wings to take her place. Enjoy your incompetent serial subs.[/quote]

Some might see this as a feature which would permit / add momentum to a radical rethinking of schooling.  If teachers are invested in the status quo, they need to keep the ship afloat.[/quote]
