Teachers in San Francisco and nearby Oakland, California, are demanding their school districts take more COVID-19 precautions amid the surge of omicron, with some members allegedly threatening walkouts.
...More than 700 people have signed an online petition calling for a "sickout" Thursday.
"Omicron breaks through vaccines and boosters and has a short incubation period. We need regular mandatory testing for all employees and students to ensure that major outbreaks do not occur, especially BEFORE we return to sites," the petition states. "Everyone in schools must be screened, and if ‘we can’t afford it,’ we shouldn’t be opening at all."...
... Oakland Unified teachers and staff... demands include two weeks of remote learning; the "mass purchase and distribution of N95/KN95 masks for all staff and students"; weekly PCR testing for all staff and students; retroactive extension of COVID-19 leave between Nov. 7, 2021, and June 20, 2022; a meeting with the Oakland Education Association (OEA) bargaining team; HEPA filters in all cafeterias and large spaces; and more....

Symptomatic is the same as any other sick person - stay home until symptoms are gone. Under the Health Order, unvaccinated are already accommodated employment by allowing for mandatory once-a-week testing.
They got their way.
That wasn't good enough.
They demanded that all students be masked muzzled.
They got their way
And now THAT isn't good enough!
Stay away from those teachers.
Stay away from those schools.
[Invitation to complete the rhyme.]
So they’re going to fake being sick to protest people being sick. Why would anyone send their kids to these sanctimonious bone heads.
Also, FIRE ALL OF THEM. Go to work or get FIRED, biatches!
And since when is Omicron (THE MIDTERM VARIANT) the big threat now?
WE'VE BECOME A NATION OF P*SSIES!
They’re breaking the back of America. I guess Soros and company are happy.
The common cold is bringing our country to its knees under Brandon.
These public-school teachers are going to war against the parents and the students. The local governments that employ them need to start channeling Ronald Reagan and referring to those teachers as “air traffic controllers.”
Remember when the South Africans who discovered it made a very emphatic point to say Omicron was very mild and pretty much nothing to be concerned about?
We see what’s happened to it since the Leftist media got hold of it.
It is a desperate attempt to keep the Democrats in control. But it is falling on its face.
Reason #248 to homeschool.
teachers have gotten used to doing no work from home and getting paid - they are not going to give that up without a fight.
The financiers need to be rounded up, assets frozen and all their activist organizations will wither on the vine
Do to them what Reagan did to Air Traffic Controllers - and make sure they never pollute another classroom with their presence again...
