Dead teachers can't teach

This article refers to Tennessee. Chicago is doing the same thing.

Teachers and staff need to be vaccinated before schools can reopen. And that's not happening.

Luckily she was one of the first to get it and recovered. But we've both lost elderly friends and family to covid.

No one knows how much schools really spread it.
