Not necessarily kids, but they’re less likely to be tested. Read this... heartbreaking how selfish many adults are.

OP, Please give a link(s) to any evidence that (any employee) caught COVID from work and it was proven. Can't do it? That's because it's not possible to 100% prove, even medical workers, doctors, cashiers, police, miltary, every day we expose ourselves and no, we can't prove it. This is where common sense comes into play.


I assume either you haven't tried Googling, or that you need some standard of proof that you know is impossible, because I cannot imagine how one would placate you.

There is no proof anyone got COVID from anywhere. Why would this be different for schools? Whenever teachers die of COVID people quickly point out that they don’t know where or how they contracted it, even though there are ongoing outbreaks in schools and many of their families report that they didn’t otherwise go out.


There is proof, they trace spread all the time. Just off the top of my head I remember articles about spread from a bus in China, a birthday party in Chicago, a wedding in Maine, and a restaurant in South Korea. Here is the South Korea article.

Like, this is how we know to avoid indoor dining, indoor gyms, etc.....

Damn people live in some anti-science, fact-free worlds (saying this about the "there is no proof" poster).


I can't decide if it is fun or terrifying to live in a world where we can't know anything about uh...anything.

This is disingenuous question and you know it OP. Shame on you.


Actually, I think a lot of teachers would like to know the answer. But there is no answer, because no one has been keeping track.


Yes, I think it’s a great question, no matter which “side” you are on.

Teachers can, have, and will spread it to each other because teachers are forced to share classrooms and other poorly ventilated spaces. Since teachers can only use the bathroom in between classes, they often cram into multi-stall staff restrooms at the same time. Will we ask teachers to hold their bladders all day or wear diapers? Or should they just leave classes unattended so they can stagger bathroom breaks? Likewise, workrooms are often unventilated spaces where teachers have to go to pickup mail, make copies, and call parents. If you want hard copy worksheets rather than screens, you are going to need teachers to line up to make copies during their planning periods.


Wear a mask. Planes are completely full. Flight Attendants are unvaccinated. And people wear masks and there are no mass outbreaks. I don't understand why you think classrooms are worse than planes?


Clearly you've never been in a school. Most are almost as bad as the fbi building.

Okay, well. The rest of us exist in reality where millions of children have been back in schools, and yet there's not one example. You are welcome to join us if you wish. You are also welcome to stay home and stop participating in society.

How many people are forced to fly on a plane for work these days? My brother used to travel for work three out of four weeks. His company does it all by Zoom now.


And don't forget the "haves" who went to poor areas and/or used connections to get vaccinated so they're now jetting away for weekends (or the "haves" who haven't yet gotten their shot but still ignore stay at home orders). Who are also sending their kids to school on Mondays.

No one is forced but the flight attendant. And journalists that are reporting. And doctors travelling to help surge areas. And senators fleeing state crises.

Just curious - do you worry about about anyone other than yourself or your family?

Here's a newsflash. Some of us have kids who are doing fine with DL and actually like having them home with us. But we also worry about the long term consequences of continued DL for other children and for families struggling with DL, including related the departure of women from the workforce. Do you care about any of that?

I'll bet that if you holier than thou people are actual people and not just trolls, you will be complaining and extremely dissatisfied when forced to confront the consequences of the level of safety you demanded.
