Sounds like you need to learn some basic biology.
Feel free to voice which part you disagree with.
the part where teachers won't get infected from children
There is no situation where teachers are not infected by students unless students never come to school and only do online learning.
So because that might sometimes be infected, we should do nothing?
God I hate this mentality. "Keeping kids at home doesn't completely remove the risk of teachers getting sick, so lets not even bother".
No one said do nothing. At no point did anyone say ok fuck it all sickness is allowed at school. All that is happening here is we are looking at the amount of kids staying home from school pre and post covid and looking at factors which affect that. One of those factors is government health messaging during covid which was some of the strictest in the world. Now the government is easing up and thinking of issuing some guidelines for parents who are unsure of when to let their kid stay home from school. It's not the end of the world like people here are making it out to be. This is how it has always been only during covid was it different.
