That’s exactly what Fraudchi told those “interviewers” recently! Vaxxed can’t get sick and can’t spread it.

boggles my mind that they can do this with a non-FDA approved vaccine



I'm not pro-vax but the list of every day items humans freely consume that have no FDA approval is as long as Santa's Naughty List. Consumer products and even FDA approved Rx meds are killing us anyway.

I think the tests are too much, but id say at this point most of our population needs the vaccine. Hard to ignore the hospitalization issue across the south. Look at mississippi and alabama right now

What in the hell do positive test results even mean? “We have 50,000 COVID positive cases.” And then there’s only like 100 people in the so called overwhelmed hospital

in all seriousness. these ridiculous measures aren’t going to stop until people push back.

walk. if a couple dozen of the teachers in the school district called in sick in strike, they’d be fricked. you can’t replace them this time of the year. and being a teacher in EBR isn’t exactly a desirable job to begin with. they couldn’t replace them all by 2nd semester.

But if you’re vaccinated you can’t spread covid


Said the director of the CDC in May. She also said you don’t need to mask or social distance and that you’re safe. Less than 3 months later, she’s now saying vaccinated people need boosters. Keep moving the goal posts bitch.

INCORRECT
You have to provide vaccination status (For some unknown reason) you are not required to be vaccinated.

You are required to submit to weekly testing regardless of your vaccination status.

Listen, it's not their fault they have to keep updating their recommendations around post vaccine protocol...they haven't had enough time to study it's effect on the population. Cut them some slack.

How can you be highly effective if you’re not willing to be vaccinated to protect your students?

Teacher shortage incoming



We already have a shortage of about 200 teachers. Seriously, they are now giving out "temporary authority to teach" vouchers (TATS), and that's something that they haven't done in a while. If you have a college degree and are willing to sign up for iTeach or a similar program, you can be hired immediately.

And do you know why we have such a shortage? The single biggest reason is that teachers are afraid of getting COVID. My own school had a teacher quit the week before school started, because he was afraid.

So, I really wonder how many teachers we would actually lose over a vaccine mandate, because there are definitely some for whom a mandate would encourage them to work, because they'd feel safer.

My wife will quit teaching in Ascension if they follow suit. frick this shite. And I myself am vaxxed but it was a giant gamble on my part. frick this, I will make my wife quit if Ascension follows suit. They’d be losing a great one, too. She’s been teacher of the year multiple times, nominated more than that, and is in a leadership position in the parish. Go ahead, Ascension. Do it and you’ll 100% lose her to another district. We can’t both have major side effects later on, we have young kids.

Eventually they will need to make a choice, is the shortage of qualified individuals worth it? If so then require the vaccine, if not them don't.

OLOL is short on nurses now, Louisiana as a whole is short on qualified teachers
