...and we have a teacher here who contracted covid-19 last spring and still suffers some long term effects. The school simply says that she can quit or apply to be disabled. Even with district insurance the copays are lots of money. Our board recently wanted to get rid of the "sick pool" that we've had for decades.

The media only focus on the vaccine, and miss some of the issues.
