God speed, I think this is the one that infects the rest of us
Got my Vaccinations and Boosters. I am at the IDGAF level, if you want to be a free-thinker, be my guest, but it's Winter now. And unless you live in the South, and even then they get cold spells, be prepared to be in a triage tent... in the Wal-Mart parking lot, during a Blizzard.Or stay home and die.
So come May 2022, I am going for my 4th Injection for that 10G Uplink.

My kids school requires masks. Haven't heard of any teachers catching it. For first 3 months I got an email from the school saying a kid tested positive. I think at least 4 times total. 2 in my oldest daughter's class and 2 in my youngest daughter's class. No one else caught it and everyone in the school seems to be safe with the mask requirement.
The idea that teachers would be dropping like flies was something that emerged from the negotiations between public school systems and the teachers unions. It was literally a bargaining tactic. Teachers unions leveraged the goodwill that most parents have towards them by claiming the govt didn't care if they died. In Chicago for instance they demanded that teachers be placed at a higher priority when the vaccines were first available - arguing that it would create the condition for teachers supporting a return to in person instruction. They wanted priority over restaurant workers, people who work in grocery stores and other industries where people were dying in large numbers SMJ. The city said OK but then they tried to mandate that teachers returning to the classroom be vaccinated, the union started fighting again
Meanwhile religious and private schools kept in person instruction and there hasn't been some nationwide trend of teachers dying at disproportionate rates. shyt is sad as fuk.

Does not sound good. Omicron is bypassing the initial vaccine doses. Our hospitals are going to be overwhelmed in a month.

Omicron is bypassing the initial vaccines. We still don't know the long term consequences of COVID either.
