[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Have the COVIDians moved onto worrying about flu in schools now?!?

It's like humans haven't survived for 100K+ years.

I wish they'd put the same energy into improving the academic performance of our public schools, which just suffered a significant amount of damage because of prolonged school closures they supported.  The learning loss, especially among the most vulnerable students, is so sad.[/quote]

Actually, about 30K don't survive the flu each year.  Mainly the very young and the very old.  So it's good to be concerned every year about the flu.[/quote]

More kdis are estimated to have died from H1N1 than from COVID.  What did we do then?

Get the vaccine (if you want to) and otherwise act normally unless you're immunocompromised (immunocompromised didn't start existing in March 2020, as some people like to think).[/quote]

Maybe a lot more people know more about how to prevent the spread of diseases now?  Maybe a lot more people understand that when they go out knowingly spreading their diseases they are adversely effecting other people?  Pre-March 2020 colleagues would complain when a co-worker would came to our cube farm coughing and sneezing all over.  Selfishness is nothing new.  Maybe we all know a bit more now and can be more considerate of others, especially the immunocompromised and others with health conditions that make the flu a bigger risk for them.

What are you doing that is so vital to the human race that you can't mitigate the spread of the flu when you are contagious?   [/quote]
