If my kids were vaccinated I would say it as OK if they were not I would have to think about it. Young people do not get very sick from Covid but the teachers all got to cut the line in getting the vaccine so they should all have gotten it. I got mine.
Actually in my opinion, covid vaccination is increase our immunity and increase the chance to fight with foreign diseases. So it's better to take vaccine. But if some people are not taking vaccines., u want to e send ur child to study. Then it would be totally at ur risk.

Kids are the least vulnerable group so yeah.
Crazy stat. More kids were shot in Chicago this year , than died of covid in the last 18 months.
Kids have been going to school with other unvaccinated kids for a long while now. Same dif, no? It all spreads the same way.

If anything. The little germ factories are more likely to give it to each other and the teacher. Than the teacher giving it to them. Even ignoring the general poor hygiene of kids. The law of averages makes it more likely. As you've got thirty kids and one adult. Before the end of the year.
I expect just about every unvaccinated teacher in a classroom will learn the hard way. That they should've gotten vaccinated.
I would not send my kid to a public school. Too much promoting of homosexual life style. Evolution and no God. Teachers say Trump and Republicans and Conservatives are evil. Then say how liberals are great. When you grow up , vote for Democrats. Not to mention promoting having sex by 8 years of age. Nope. My kid will live a Godly life , not a worldly life.
You can still get covid and spread it if you're vaccinated. Therefore, the vax status of the people around you doesn't matter one bit. You can be vaxxed and never come into contact with anyone who isn't, and still get the virus.
Oh that’s a raised a fat kid sure, for kids it’s like a common cold or the flu. One of the guys I actually play poker with is a history teacher and he’s unvaccinated
@GaryBacon Except for all of the immunocompromised kids and staff who can’t medically get vaccinated. It’s important to think about community and not just oneself.
@GaryBacon Immunity through infection is temporary. And there is evidence that long term effects can persist. Scientists don’t know for how long yet; the symptoms could last a lifetime and cause health issues later in life. Would you make the same argument for Polio or Mumps?
My point is, if you are vaccinated you cannot be endangered or endanger anyone regarding the illness you are immunized against. If you aren't vaccinated for whatever reason you should want the people around you to be so you don't contract whatever you can't be vaccinated against.
Not all natural immunity is temporary, for example, chicken pox. If you get chicken pox you will never get it again.
And yes I would make this argument for Polio and Mumps because they have vaccines unlike covid which is just a shot that makes the symptoms lighter.
@GaryBacon Which is exactly why staff should be vaccinated. You just made my point for me.
Scientists know for a fact that Covid antibodies are temporary. Also, chicken pox in childhood leads to shingles later in life. It has lifelong consequences.
The Covid vaccine is a vaccine. I think you just misunderstand what it is.
No, it's an accurate term to apply to those who ignore the science and instead live in a world of paranoia and hypochondria.
I'll ask it again. How many children 0-17 have died from Covid-19? I'll even let you lump in 2020 and 2021 figures even though that's not normally how disease fatalaties are counted.
@GaryBacon Please see the connection between chicken pox and shingles. Rapid Evolution of Covid-19 is one of the major factors causing the continued spread. Before delta spread in Israel the numbers there were extremely low.
@okeydoke If my future kids can get vaccinated against something then yes, I would want them to, however I think it is important to weigh the risks before taking any experimental shot, drug, etc.
@joeldalton Branch Covidian refers to those who believe Covid and associated death are part of God’s plan. It took me about five seconds to check online what it meant.
Under delta (and other variants) number of child deaths are going up. Why would you want your kids to potentially deal with lifelong consequences even if they don’t die?
@okeydoke I don't know what to tell you anymore. I could spend countless hours trying to find things to refute you, but that will likely lead nowhere. I hope whoever is wrong here will realize it.
I have my own definition for Branch Covidians. It's better than other ones I could use. So again, how many die from the flu? Use 2019 figures since in 2020 the flu "disappeared"
@okeydoke of course I can. Especially for a term that didn't exist 2 years ago. What are the statistics on "lifelong conditions"? What are they specifically?
Yes I can use my definition for a made-up term that didn't exist 2 years ago. So these "lingering complications". What's the rate of them? What are they, specifically? C'mon science guy, you have to be able to do better than just throwing out vague statements.
No, I prefer them to not be taught how to work within a rigid system, I would prefer them to have actually valuable skills, not... cursive... and math... and extremely shallow versions of world history.
