There’s no way to prove whether it was caught on the job or not. Even though it’s quite obvious that the jobs we’re discussing here are inherently risky.

Read the article. The firefighters and EMS most definitely are catching the virus while on the job. OF COURSE they should be paid. I cannot believe you're questioning that. Wow.
The article says no contact tracing or other evidence is able to substantiate those that were denied coverage.

The ICUs are close to being maxed out. I picked hybrid but no way I'm sending my kids back until these numbers go back to where they were in late summer/early fall.
I know they said no switching but...
FCCPS is planning to open in January= I will send my kids.
Private schools will continue to be open, as they have been all along- those parents send their kids.
Kids are safer at school. School spread does not equal community spread. School can and must be open.

You're welcome.
This is disgraceful. I cannot believe that the firefighters and EMS are being treated so horribly and callously. I also cannot believe that all the so-called concerned citizens yammering on and on here about schools haven't said a word about this outrageous treatment of firefighters and EMS. And now they want to throw teachers into the same mix. It is absolutely shameful.

They will let you switch out of hybrid. But not into it.

Here? No they aren't.
In any case, by middle or end of January, our numbers will be good enough for you.

And it stinks that you have to use your own sick leave. I think it is criminal that firefighters, EMS, police and other front line workers are being treated this way. And now people want to throw a much larger group into the same mix? No. I will not do it.Anonymous wrote:If they get COVID on the job they are paid. Why can’t you all understand that?
Not paying you for COVID caught on your own time.
Why should public school teachers get that benefit and not everybody else who is out actually doing their jobs?
I hope you don’t teach reading comprehension.
