Teachers Demanding Priority

[philipkntz]

The big problem here is that teachers and special needs assistants were promised early vaccination in return for opening up the schools. Now that promise isn't being kept.
What I think is really happening though is that the government is playing for time, hoping for more info on AstraZenica side effects. It appears that younger people especially younger females are at higher risk.
A month or so vaccinating the over 55s might be time enough to yield some answers or do a different vaccine to become available.

Why is it so implausible that you might agree with me?
It's like the old life jacket arguement, the government can't win but nobody is actually wrong. Let's just hope it all ends soon.

Given the UK's decision yesterday this could very well be true.

Broken promises at the heart of it as usual

Can't believe I actually agree with you but age related vaccination is the best way forward ... teachers have a permanent 'moan factor' built into their DNA.... every year they bullshit about something ... Tesco/SuperValu/Lidl/Aldi checkout workers dealing with 300 customers a day are at far greater risk than teachers in a class room with 20 students ... Gardai at higher risk also ...

With respect that’s total BS, Lidl workers are not in a room with no ventilation along with 30 plus people for 45 mins at a stretch with no opportunity to take a break.

Astra will be old news once the Johnson & Johnson vaccine hits peak use, that’s what we are buying time for if anything

Where are you teaching ??

A predictable response, incorrect but predictable....Canali is making an effort but must try harder, you don’t have to be a teacher to see the glaring reality of their situation
