I don't understand how thousands of FCPS have rare health conditions that don't afflict every other teaching community in the country.
Half the country is doing distance learning.

Of course it's not common. The person who has that situation raises it to justify why all teachers can't go back.
No reasonable parent wants teachers who *legitimately* has medical grounds for an ADA to teach in person. If one can't be vaccinated due to some *medical* condition that makes getting the vaccine risky, of course no parent is going to say that teacher should get vaccinated.
About 2,000 teachers got ADAs. The parents have a problem with the bad apples that slipped into that group when they shouldn't have been allowed in that group.

They don't have a rare diseases. They have the health conditions that were listed by the CDC as individuals that needed to be more careful during the pandemic.
But now, there's a vaccine, so.....
