Sorry I'm late
I dated a 20 year old when I was 23. It was a disaster that left me hosed up for like a decade afterwards, not the least the which because we would both later realize we were trans and it made the dynamics of the relationship very weird. Get two people with tons of baggage together, with the girl trying and failing at being a guy very badly and the trans masc enby being a mess because of the abuse they'd experienced from being treated as a girl.

Now, to bring it back to covid, if there was a variant that caused only hyper localized brain damage for the 'crushes on straight girls in high school' part of my brain, I'd be ready to do my part for the economy.

I think there is a major setback in my idea to improve the air quality in the schools I'm in, in order to keep them open. I completely missed it because this thread is really one of the few places I know that take covid seriously. I did not realize how over covid is for a lot of people

I was in the office because I had that big in person meeting and I ran into my boss. She actually apologized to me and said something like, "Hey sorry your first year was so crazy! Next year will be easier!" And I just thought, no, it's going to get way worse.

I am still going to try this with those corsi boxes. I have my own room I'm teaching in over the summer period so that's when I'll start. If it works, it might help me convince people that we need to be taking this seriously if we want to do in person schooling during successive covid waves. Sorry for the long post, any advice is appreciated.

Okay, I am so sorry for referencing the OP, I feel like I do it too often... but have you checked out covidisairborne's resources section? Like I'm a moron and I don't have a solution for you but that site has a lot of infographics and studies and poo poo, some specifically about classroom safety, that might help you formulate a plan to win over your boss and others as to why they should improve ventilation

Did they just misplace all the vaccines and are embarrassed about telling us?

Is letting us get vaccinated admitting covid isn’t over so they can let us have one?

Do the vaccines actually gently caress you up and they don’t want to tell us so they’re hoping we’ll just stop asking if they keep putting us off?

I have, thank you! I also got in touch with some engineers on twitter during the height of the first omicron wave. They showed me that it's actually pretty easy to filter the air enough to safely keep these schools open. The issue I'm having is convincing people that this is something we should be working on.

When will wearing a mask morph into a secret society type thing? Seems like it would own and be very cool with no historical downsides to point to.

It's doable for individual teachers in their own individual classrooms with no special training for a cost of around 10c a student a day (assuming you want to run three corsi cubes and replace the filters every 90 days or so)
