On one hand I get it, on the other hand I’m sick of seeing 100% of my teacher friends from Facebook posting photos of their massive group trips to Florida, going out to bars to meet their friends etc etc etc. Don’t complain about the dangers of the classroom during the day and then go over to your friends house to play board games with 10 of your closes friends at night.
If you’re seeing 100% of your teacher friends act that way, I’m assuming you have very few teacher friends. As a spouse of a teacher, I have seen first hand the steps taken by her and her colleagues to distance themselves and remain safe while outside of school.
People or any profession are still only people after all. Just wanted to point out the disingenuous nature of your blanket categorization of all teachers.
Brian – I am 100% with you on this. The schools push for social distance, masks, etc,, but on breaks they are letting loose. That’s great, but they are bringing it back to the classroom, in addition to the rest of the student body that did the same thing.
Like we used to learn in school;
Children, wait your turn!!
Teachers are a profession that deal with multiple people face to face every day. It’s not unreasonable for them and other front-line workers to want earlier access to the vaccine. The fact that other states are making teachers and front-line workers a priority for vaccines and Indiana is not says a lot about our “State That Works”.
If teachers can get vaccinated and stay in the classroom, maybe virtual learning can end and more people can get back to work.
Teachers don’t seem all that different than firefighters or police when it comes to vaccination priority. But they do vote Democrat in larger numbers… I’m sure that’s just a coincidence.
Restaurant workers are also front line workers and should be counted any less than a teacher. However, IN is 100% correct with going after the populations that have the highest death rates! We need to take care of the old.
The appointments for those age 70+ in my area are completely filled thru the end of February!! Waiting to see when they will add more for March! Telephone rep at 211 said “we didn’t expect this kind of response”. Really??
I agree teachers should be prioritized in receiving the vaccine if they want it. They are at a higher risk than the general population due to the nature of their work and should get the benefit of the doubt on this issue. I am 65 and do not feel comfortable being given a dose ahead of our educators. I think they need it more than I do.
my mother is 85 and lives in CA and the CA website crashed. A state that is home to technology has government websites that do not work because of obsolescence. Again when we allocate limited health care, we should look at best outcomes. Older people have worse outcomes and I support attacking the most at risk groups. Death outcomes seems to be the highest order.
Teachers are always frustrated or angry about something. My mom was a special ed teacher in a Charter school. She didn’t do it for the money or to be first in-line. Wait your turn. There are more dire people that need the vaccine. Healthcare providers, the elderly, grocery workers that must work to keep everyone fed, police, fire, etc. I am 40 and am happy to give these people first shot (no pun intended). I don’t suspect teachers will come back to school just because they received a vaccination.
If so many people believe that it is important for in-person learning, we should be doing more to make sure it happens safely. One way is to vaccinate teachers. Politicians put your vaccine where your mouth is!
