Regarding the teachers shortages: Your reporting of being "told" that "most" were jabbed & had no problem doesn't cut it & frankly…. lost you a bit of journalistic credibility. Who speculated this? Have you interviewed any other teachers who left? What the the "few" say who refused the inoculation? Have you interviewed any of them? Funny how Oregon, Washing & California are all having issues with public servant "shortages", yet states like Idaho, Wyoming, Florida, S. Dakota, etc. etc. etc. have had NO reports of this.
That said, to show what an incompetent tyrant our governor is, she announced the mandates for teachers in August of this year announcing they'd be due by October 18th or when the FDA approved them. It was known in MAY when the CDC announced that they were no longer going to monitor non-fatal/non-hospitalization breakthrough cases that they didn't prevent transmission. What's even funnier is in July, before this executive order was made, another large breakthrough outbreak in Idaho was reported & KGW REPORTED ON IT!! Even if there was this narrative that they "mildly prevented" transmission, or that we didn't know for sure, She STILL had a chance to pull the mandate as in September, a peer reviewed, published study in the National Library of Medicine titled, "Increases in Covid-19 are unrelated to levels of vaccination across 68 countries and 2947 counties in the United States" came out. (The original study was published in the European Journal of Epidemiology, Sep. 30th). IGNORING THE SCIENCE is what she did & now…. our KIDS ARE PAYING THE PRICE.
If you want to know why our elected officials in the state have such insanely low standards, perhaps it's because they're not being asked questions that actually reflect the expectations or values of the people. Just a thought…..
