“It’s extremely frightening. I hear this every day. Whether in Broward or elsewhere. We’re the 5th largest union in the country,” said Fusco............................

1. "three of the teachers who died were unvaccinated"

This is shocking. Teachers should be required to be vaxxed as part of their employment. Back in the day, I had to have a TB test and fingerprinted before employment - which pissed me that the students did not have to meet the same standards.

3. They used to test all of us for TB when I was a kid. I remember being so scared

Even in the first grade I was showing signs of OCD because I was always looking at the thing terrified that it would get red and inflamed.

12. And TB test is still required for schools today (at least in CA). Had to provide Vax card and TB

test results for my daughter to enroll in high school two years ago.

10. thanks to gov deathsentance and lard lips who weaponized this .unnecessary.

11. We need to acknowledge that we are in the 3rd wave of a very deadly pandemic.

And we need a nationwide lockdown.

This is how pandemics go. The Delta variant has broken through the vaccines and now vaccinated people are carriers too.

Stand by for more death.
