A private school in Miami is requiring students who get vaccinated against COVID-19 to stay home for 30 days after each dosemonths after the school said it would not employ anyone who is vaccinated.
Parents whose children attend Centner Academy received a letter from the school urging them to hold off until summer if they plan to have their children get vaccinated against the virus, WSVN reported.
The letter said that if parents still get their children vaccinated, there will be a mandatory quarantine period.

The apparent reason for the move is because "there will be time for the potential transmission or shedding onto others to decrease."
However, vaccine shedding can only occur when a vaccination contains a weakened version of a live virus. None of the COVID-19 vaccines approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) do someaning no one who received the COVID-19 vaccine will shed the virus, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).

(42,646 posts)Even for a city with a storied history of deep-pocketed scam artists who swoop in and dazzle the powers-that-be, the quackery at Centner Academy stands out. A two-campus private school for the children of downtown and midtown hipsters who can afford $30,000 tuition, the academy is steeped in scandal over the revelation that co-founder and leader Leila Centner is a rabid anti-vaxxer. The wealthy educator doesnt want her teachers vaccinated and turning into monsters who, just by their mere presence, are capable of hurting the children shes grooming to be leaders with heart. (The academy provides a mindfulness coach.) In her world of false claims, its not the coronavirus that gives children the cooties. Its the adults getting a vaccine. Shes Florida Woman right here.
We are still in the middle of a pandemic that has claimed more than half a million American lives and, in Florida, Miami is its epicenter. Vaccination is our only return ticket to some kind of normalcy. But Leila Centner imparts knowledge through her touchy-feely New Age-branded bubble. A fast-spreading deadly disease isnt going to interrupt the observance of core values like medical freedom from mandated vaccines in the first happiness school in the U.S. based in Miami, as her public-relations agency bills the academy, which runs from pre-K through middle school.
Happiness, apparently, doesnt include following the science. And the emotional intelligence the curriculum is supposed to develop in children doesnt apply to Centners views of vaccination. She announced to teachers in a Zoom call that they will no longer have a job at Centner if they vaccinate. If they vaccinated before her April 22 admonition, they may not hug children for 30-90 days, when the nasty stuff happens, according to her. But, she adds, dont keep the CDC-recommended six feet of distance from children or theyll believe theyre no longer liked by the teacher. Its all gobbledygook and has no scientific basis whatsoever.
But guru Leila, who with her husband, David, launched the school in 2019, gets her coronavirus information from the internet, where she says thousands share stories of vaccine horrors. In other words, she hangs on every word delivered by debunked conspiracy theorists, good ol American lunatics, and Russian bots. In case teachers are skeptical of her internet research prowess, Centner offers local lore. She says a Miami woman she knows developed terrible headaches from spending time with her vaccinated parents. (LOL emoji here. Who doesnt get a stress headache around parents, even without COVID?) The woman, she claims, also developed as a result of the contact with her vaccinated parents, an excessively bloody menstrual period two weeks early. This is a common occurrence for peri- and menopausal women and can also be caused by endometriosis. Normal life stuff.
