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.
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.
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.
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.

Sure it is. We force everyone to do all kinds of things. Stop at stop signs, for example. Don't give a shit about their freedom. Or the low risk that someone will rear end them when they stop.

It's not enough to be a Republican is it? Aren't they just laughing at the subset of Republicans who were stupid enough to pretend COVID wasn't serious and/or pretend they were smarter than public health experts on the subject?

Sigh. Are all children vaccinated? Are even a majority of all children vaccinated? Come back when you can say YES to either of those. DP.
Those crazy kids... its like they're the most demographic to die from covid.
oh wait.. they're the least likely! (770 0-17 year olds out of 880,487 deaths)

PP, that poster doesn’t care about the kids at all, s/he just sees them as nasty vectors who are going to kill all their boosted teachers. Or something?
??? Of course, the teacher will be more concerned about her health than your child's health. It would be extremely weird if she wasn't. She's a teacher, not Mother Teresa.

Everyone has the opportunity to get vaxxed. If people choose not to do it, it's on them. If it overwhelms the health care industry so they can't do their for-profit elective surgeries, that is on them. I think we should all go back to normal life - like in Europe - and maybe the idea that we will no longer wear masks to protect the unvaccinated will encourage them to get vaxxed.

I don't think that the PP is a teacher at all, just someone with a COVID-centric would view.
