My mom told me she worried about that, last month. I asked if she, at 68, was planning on dropping a little brother on me anytime soon.The latest attack on the COVID vaccinations is rumors spreading across social media and the dark web of Q Anon that the vaccine causes infertility.

Yeah I overheard people at work talking about that and then pretty much deciding not to get the vaccine although we are eligible. I think so far…me, my girlfriend, the front desk person, and one other teacher has gotten vaccinated…out of our entire staff.The latest attack on the COVID vaccinations is rumors spreading across social media and the dark web of Q Anon that the vaccine causes infertility.

Is it specifically the one using messenger RNA technology, or will the aborted fetal cells of J&J also make you infertile? Yes, the mRNA vaccine is new and different, but the J&J is made like other existing vaccines....you know the vaccines that people got when they were kids....and every year for the flu....The latest attack on the COVID vaccinations is rumors spreading across social media and the dark web of Q Anon that the vaccine causes infertility.

Maybe Daft Punk broke up because of the places lifting mask mandates, and they were worried about touring Texas in their masks?

It was announced today that teachers and day care workers in Texas can get the vaccines. We were at only old people and people with pre-existing health conditions could get it. So at least we're not trying to kill our teachers (THAT WE VALUE SO MUCH -suburban Trumpy Facebook mom) now.
I guess it was only a matter of time before people started making fake vaccines...
South African police seized 400 ampoules, providing 2,400 doses, of a fake vaccine in Germiston, Gauteng, along with a big supply of fake 3M brand masks. They arrested a Zambian national and three Chinese suspects.
"This is proving to be very effective as we have seen in the arrests for foreign nationals attempting to peddle fake vaccines to unsuspecting people within South Africa."
That raid led to a second on a manufacturing premises in China, where police seized 3,000 fake vaccines and arrested 80 suspects.

And here's some new research on school based clusters and suggestions for educators:
These findings suggest that educators can play an important role in in-school transmission and that in-school transmission can occur when physical distancing and mask compliance are not optimal. Previous investigations in other U.S. school districts found that low transmission rates in schools can be maintained in the setting of high community incidence (2,3). To ensure safer in-person learning during the COVID-19 pandemic, schools should implement multicomponent mitigation strategies, including efforts to prevent infection among educators, and promoting consistent, correct mask use and physical distancing wherever possible, especially during mealtime when masks are not being worn.
The finding that educators play an important role in in-school transmission is consistent with findings from other investigations. A large prospective study of SARS-CoV-2 transmission in schools in the United Kingdom found that the most common type of transmission event was from educator to educator (4); in another large prospective study of transmission in German schools, in-school transmission rates were three times higher when the index case occurred in an educator than when the index case occurred in a student.¶¶ Measures to prevent SARS-CoV-2 infection among educators, including promotion of COVID-19 precautions outside of school, minimizing in-person adult interactions at school, ensuring mask compliance and physical distancing among educators when in-person interaction is unavoidable, and COVID-19 vaccination, when available, will likely reduce in-school transmission, particularly if implemented in a multifaceted approach. Messaging to improve awareness among educators about the risk for acquiring SARS-CoV-2 infections from colleagues in addition to students is needed. The school district has already implemented many of these measures, including administrative changes to prevent nonessential in-person interactions among educators.

God I hope so. Two kids is enough.
Speaking of the product of my loin, the younger came home from daycare with a 100.8 fever and we immediately were like oh god covid. Nope, double ear infection! Poor bud. But I guess kids still get regular kid stuff.

This was circulated amongst the psychologist chapters chairs group. I find that the adults in the schools are more lax with this stuff. They usually have the sense to be strict around the students. It’s funny they want us to test kids. Yea, 3 hours in closet with another person Sounds like a safe situation.
Fun fact: 2nd week in return to person there was a case at my kids school. Didn’t affect my sons class, but...
Our school system is requiring the school to call parents every time someone at the school tests positive for Covid. We get the covid call about 1-2 times a week.

That sounds like some quality screening there. We are required to submit a health screening to have our kid in school.
How long are those classes shut down?
