That's fucking terrifying. I'm right there with you, and I'm so sorry. I'm a meeting right now where we're supposed to rejoice that our doors are reopening and all I can think is how terrified I am and wondering why everyone else isn't terrified.

We opened in September with all kinds of precautions. There were a ton of outbreaks reported and even more not reported. Teachers in plague-ridden schools had to refuse work (illegally) before the schools were closed. We were forced to close again in December because transmission rates skyrocketed (attributed to "community spread" not schools, because as we all know these are separate things). Now we're being forced back and the rates are higher than they were when we closed—even with underreporting, because they screwed that up—and we have two new, more transmissible strains.

Not even the union suggests that we should be a priority for vaccination, let alone be vaccinated before returning.

I chose this job knowing that I might have to take a bullet for a student but not a bullet that I take home and massacre my family with.
