“ the essential worker designation provides guidance for educators that is only voluntary, it calls on teachers to return to the classroom even after potential exposure.

Vice President Mike Pence announced the decision to governors on a call earlier this week, a person familiar with the decision said. Under Department of Homeland Security guidance issued this week, teachers are now considered "critical infrastructure workers" and are subject to the same kinds of advisories as other workers who have born that label -- such as doctors and law enforcement officers.
The guidance for essential workers states that they can continue to work even after exposure to a confirmed case of Covid-19, provided they remain asymptomatic. Schools' contribution to community spread has already been a top concern for districts making the decision to open or close, so pushing teachers to continue working after potential exposure could prove controversial.”

Yes.

Responding to myself. I wish they had spelled "borne" correctly, though.

In adding teachers to its list of essential workers, which is only guidance and nonbinding, the government is advising teachers exposed to confirmed cases of Covid-19 but who are not exhibiting symptoms to remain at work and not quarantine.

Yeah, until they take it seriously, all this does is throw teachers under the bus.

It throws students under the bus when they are in classrooms with teachers who are infected, but don’t feel supported in taking time off until no longer infectious.

It throws students’ grandparents and medically fragile family members under the bus if an infected teacher is told to report anyway because there aren’t any subs available and teacher is afraid of retaliation if they don’t show up.
