I was gonna post this. When I was teaching if there was a teacher who died in the school district while they were still an active teacher it was a BIG deal. Having four die in 36 hours (two in the same school)? That's fukking insane.
Article says 3 weren't vaccinated and the status of the 4th is unknown.
4 Broward educators with COVID die within 2 days as school year nears
Fusco said none of the four educators had been back in school buildings since the end of last year.
It comes as Broward’s public school district battles the state over the face mask mandate the school board voted 8-1 to keep in place earlier this week.
That goes against Gov. Ron DeSantis’ orders against such mask mandates, and the state’s education commissioner has threatened to withhold Broward School Board salaries. The district has a 5 p.m. deadline Friday to reply to the state about its plans.
Broward County is leading the nation in new COVID-19 hospitalizations, according to federal data.
“Our numbers are horrible,” Broward Mayor Steve Geller said of the coronavirus surge in the county.
I think all 4 were unvaccinated homey. Granted I think it was worded kind of weird
Three of the educators were not vaccinated, according to Fusco, including one who “was on the road to getting vaccinated” but wasn’t yet cleared by her doctor to get the shot. She “was really looking forward to getting it in the next couple weeks,” the union president said.
Fusco said she couldn’t comment on the vaccination status of the other educator.
That "including one" is one of the first three, cause he is openly talking about her vaccination status. Meanwhile the next line is:
Still sounds unvaccinated tho. Family was probably defiant to the end, "That's her private medical information and we don't have to disclose it if we don't want to!"
shyt like THIS is fukking good enough reason to run up on government officials/establishments not the retarded shyt they chose to run up on the capitol for
Texas Governor Greg Abbott and state Attorney General Ken Paxton on Wednesday filed a petition to halt a judge's order requiring face masks inside schools and businesses in Dallas County. The order was signed despite Abbott previously banning government entities and officials from implementing mask mandates in Texas.
Dallas County Judge Clay Jenkins on Wednesday signed an order requiring public schools, child care centers and businesses in Dallas County to develop health and safety plans that include, at minimum, face mask requirements for employees and visitors, CBS Dallas-Fort Worth reports. Jenkins cited rising COVID-19 cases and hospitalizations as the reasoning behind the mask mandate.
Texas has recently seen a surge in COVID-19 cases and hospitalizations. According to the state's health department, Texas is averaging around 14,000 new cases per week and roughly 60 deaths per week, nearly triple the number of deaths per week from one month ago.
