The only place I've seen masks mandated was at the orientation for my new job. That gave me some comfort and anecdotally I am noticing more masks when I go out but I get the feeling most people don't really care. Something that I noticed when I was interviewing and would ask about covid is that some of them would say "hopefully we don't have to wear masks." Not "hopefully the virus is contained," they just don't want to wear a mask. I can't understand that. We start in the classroom this Friday so we will see how it goes. Oh boy!

Asproigerosis posted:My understanding is that america is the only country in the world that puts doctors on such a ridiculous pedastal that they are gods among mere mortals analogous to c suites. In England the doctors put in loving peripheral IVs. If you asked a doctor in america to do that you'd get the same reaction as if you just told them to get in there and clean the poo poo off that cdiff patient. Utterly beneath them. What happened to MadJackal? He used to post a lot in this thread.

I have a friend back in Hawaii who is currently refusing to get vaccinated. He lives with his grandmother and his dad. He is waiting for the novavax vaccine because that is the one that he wants to take. He's recently been telling me he is having panic attacks because his job might start mandating that he get vaccinated or tested weekly. I'm just venting, but this is a guy who watches prepper youtube and is supposedly ready for a "SHTF" situation and the idea of talking to someone about this is giving him panic attacks.

A panic would at least mean people are taking this seriously. I never really stopped stocking up on supplies. Both my wife and I mentioned that we are seeing way more masks than we did when we first got here but not all of the schools have started yet. I hope to hear more information regarding schools at work tomorrow. Oh boy!

My friend who doesn't want the vaccine is now concerned with ADE. I remember it being mentioned earlier in the thread (I think yesterday) but is there any information I may have missed? I'm not going to bother sharing it with him just for my own information.

Thank you both for the quick answers!

It loving sucks to watch this dude I grew up with start fighting culture wars regarding covid. I even told him to eat the loving ivermectin if he wants to, no one's going to stop him, but not even that's good enough for him. He lives with his grandma who got vaccinated but it still seems risky as hell to me.

I am at a middle school right now and just overheard that someone is so sick that they passed out. They don't want to go home because of work that needs to be done or something? I'm not sure, I overheard it in passing and wanted to share. This could be due to the heat, though it doesn't seem that hot to me. Either way ahahahaha

People here are now talking about how quarantines and distance learning is coming back, but I don't think so. I work for the school district and masks aren't even mandated at schools, just "encouraged." The only time the kids have to wear masks is on the school bus. The classes are packed. It's hosed! I'm at a meeting now where masks were mandated and the presenter has had her loving mask over her chin the entire time. WONDERFUL

At a training today I was told the policy says if a kid gets long covid they might need an iep. Which to me raises the question then why risk giving them the disability by having schools face to face with no mask mandate, no filtration, no measures to mitigate the virus? I feel like whatever a parent thinks about poo poo like vaccines we at the schools could try the minimal poo poo that kind of works like masks, distance, filtration/ventilation. But no one does and when I mention it they don't even care enough to laugh at me or disagree, it's just shrugged off.

super sweet best pal posted:An entire generation of kids is going to die, with the survivors suffering from lifelong disabilities, all because their parents don't want to take the time to raise them. To be fair some of the parents can't due to their own work and the cost of child care so it falls, as it always has, onto educators to pick up the slack. What gets me is none of the schools I service are even pretending there's a pandemic loving up the entire health care system. I thought I had crack pinged last year but I guess there are levels. My nf95 is working hard, thank you.
