It’s called being able to do basic arithmetic from news articles that come out. You should learn how to do it.

Do you even know what an inverse ratio is?

Except your math doesn't take into account that not everyone has contracted it.

Using your own logic, there's been 103 million cases worldwide. There's been 2.24 million deaths. That's not 0.33%, dumbass

Even if we use your non-sourced or probably biased source statistics that is 97.9% survival rate for all people, including those in hospice care, elderly, obese, malnourished, multiple medical conditions.

Second of all, those are only reported cases. There are many more people who have contracted Covid but never got tested so they don’t show up as a case.

I don’t expect you to know this since your math education is horrible. But the larger the denominator the survivablity percentage increases (that pesky reciprocal that you don’t understand shows up here).

So even if with your probable biased sourced information, we can see that Covid is no big deal for overwhelmingly majority of the population.

Before you ask, no I don’t give a **** if you or anyone else in your family contracts it.

Why don’t you put your previous post that you deleted that showed your math skills?

I guess parents are supposed to just not work and sit at home and do the teachers job for them (...)

Gonna need a citation on that one.

It's pretty hilarious how people who barely passed high school science class and yet think they know more than people who devote their entire lives to studying a subject hate teachers so much

The other aspect that people don't take into account - the infection rate in the US is still just 8% of the population. Now granted there are the untested, but it's still a ridiculously low number.

What's the IFR for children under the age of 14?

What's the IFR for adults under the age of 50?

I'll wait.....

That would mean it's actually more deadly than you suggest because not everyone has had it yet. Also gonna neg you back on r/c

lmao teachers always looking for excuses to get paid more and work less

Are students bad because teachers are bad, or are teachers bad because students are bad?

It's not the children people worry about. It's the fact that they can still spread it to those more vulnerable. I thought you miscers were pro-life?

*******s like you have no idea what's going on in schools.

If anything, a teacher's workload has doubled. School's are still open to vulnerable and pupils of key workers. In our case, we have around 15 pupils in each class still coming in. On top of teaching kids in school, we also have to plan, upload and mark activities for remote learning, for pupils at home. So no, we're not getting paid to do nothing!

Seriously, this is just hot air blowing out Gavin Newsom butt because of a recall being pushed towards him. Nothing is worse than a flipflop.

I'm a teacher from that state and will say we all don't want to be out, in fact, we all want to return as much as the parents do. So to call us trash is actually quite insulting considering I have been doing my job during the entirety of this pandemic. On top of that, my district has an extensive plan for returning. We are ready to return when we can safely with our schedules already set and a hybrid model already put into place when we start returning.

My workload has tripled since this school year has started. I still have a full class (36 students) for a normal school year, I am still expected to fulfill nearly impossible 504/IEP requirements. Not to mention the giant language, cultural, and generational barriers that have basically become more of an issue.

I have twice as long office hours as I would normally have. I still run student clubs in a distance platform. The process of contacting a parent has went from a simple phone call or email to a slew of additional proof forms for the state. Stuff I could do normally with technology, and would have been able to implement easily on this platform was immediately blocked by my district enforcing a super slow, very stupid program. What used to take a few seconds to grade per student is now 1-5 minutes due to how bad the grading program we are forced to us is. What used to be a 30 minute session of grading papers on my personal program is now a 2 hr process thanks to google classroom. Every week there is some new bullchit thing being thrown in our faces. From the ridiculous hoops to prove we are teaching, to the state's additional bs crud that is purposely designed to cause an audit that some wonderful republicans in the state pushed in the hopes they can justify cutting funding to schools. Oh and not to mention the fact we are still required to administer state testing and can be still held liable for students cheating and our state is still doing our accreditation processes for school, so we still need to build and present data for the WASC team that will somehow rate us. You try getting 36 students to write a state or district required essay or take a test with them all in different locations. Some of my kids aren't even in the same freaking time zone.

Then we have staff who still work in our schools who keep them clean, maintenance or are essential office staff. Almost half of them have gotten covid and we have lost some very good people to the virus as well. I will also be loosing some amazing colleagues since they are retiring at the end of the year due to a golden handshake being offered for qualified people. It's not all sunshine and rainbows for private schools, or charters who chose to stay open. People are getting sick left and right and in the end most of their students are placed on distant learning because of catching the virus. If we were to be in person in my district all it would take would be 1 person to catch it in a class for the whole class to be distant learning for the remainder of the school year.

We are in support of us staying on distant learning until it is safe for us to return. My county is no where ready for vaccinations of my group since the elderly population is one of the largest in the state. I know that my district union and our superintendent is in support of us all to stay safe. Plus, the more than 3 quarters of the families of my district are choosing a distant platform until a vaccine is readily available. That is what the unions are fighting for, to ensure it is safe for us, the students and their families. In my district alone the area is one of the worst hit spots of my county, and is the reason why we haven't left our purple tier. I'm not going to die because my state has a piss poor vaccine rollout and our governor is trying to appease to voters.

But no, clearly people here know best.
