A private school in Miami, bars vaccinated teachers......

And this is why I still can’t convince my mom to get a vaccine. She was telling me today that the vaccine causes dementia. Umm no. Covid can have neurological effects but I haven’t seen anything about the vaccine causing neuro issues.

I wish she would not look at alternative news sites. Since she believes CNN is completely corrupt I have tried to steer her to other reputable sources, but no. She keeps going back to the fringe sources.

She also mentioned that she couldn’t believe they were testing the vaccine on young children. By this point I was extremely frustrated and I snapped back “well if all the adults would get vaccinated we would probably reach herd immunity without vaccinating preschoolers!”

Sorry for the derail and rant, I’ve just had enough today!

Exactly my thoughts.

That article is literally one of the dumbest things I’ve ever read and to think she’s the head of a place that is educating children is horrifying.

Wonder if they are related to (or have a connection of some sort with) houstonsandy 's employer in the thread Could You Work With This Kind of Crazy?

I'm going to guess that parents sending their kids to this school are cool with her wackadoo beliefs. I wouldn't be sending my kid to such a school and that's my right. I'm guessing that more wackadoos that share their beliefs about vaccines will look to enroll their kids. I would hope, sane parents, if any, would pull their kids.

Covid has taught me to never underestimate the stupidity of my fellow Americans. It's really embarrassing and truth be told, exhausting at this point. Just when you think they can't get any dumber, hold my beer.....

Little off topic, but these kids will be so happy after having chicken pox they develop shingles later in life... Or even serious long haul issues after Covid!

A large percentage of the US population is much stupider than we think it is.

And cuz "America" and "stupid", here are some facts. Not that that means anything to those who value beliefs > facts.

"Fact Check-COVID vaccines do not ‘shed’ from one person to another and then cause reproductive problems"

False claims that the coronavirus vaccines can be passed – or “shed” – from an immunized person to an unvaccinated woman and then somehow affect the woman’s reproductive system are whipping around social media. Top medical experts agree that it is impossible for a person to transmit the vaccines to people they happen to be near and for a woman to experience miscarriage, menstrual cycle changes, and other reproductive problems by being around a vaccinated person.

“This is a conspiracy that has been created to weaken trust in a series of vaccines that have been demonstrated in clinical trials to be safe and effective,” said Dr Christopher Zahn, Vice President for Practice Activities at the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists, the leading U.S. organization for medical professionals in women’s healthcare.

Calling the vaccines “our single best tool for confronting a global pandemic that has taken 600,000 lives in this country alone,” Zahn added in a statement emailed to Reuters that “such conspiracies and false narratives are dangerous and have nothing to do with science.”

Now that I’ve had the vaccine and can go out in public, I read stuff like this and wonder if I even want to.

I was thinking that too... and then quit.  Like right before school starts...  HOW can people be so ignorant and still function??  

It’s also why they say “never underestimate the power of very stupid people in large groups”

(Somehow quoted the wrong post initially, so I deleted it)

this is the idiot my older sister was listening to and why she's not getting the COVID vaccination... her reasoning? "he's a Kennedy; he MUST be telling the truth."  

My sister USED to be reasonable, or so I thought.  

I hope the vaccinated teachers at that school can bring some sort of a lawsuit against the school owners.  

That reuters link was posted right away in response to the stupid woman on the parent FB group. She responded again with links from rumble(dot)com and truthunmasked(dot)org. /eyeroll

Sadly, you are exactly right, there is NO convincing these people of anything that does not match their beliefs.

How are schools like these allowed to continue to operate? I mean, I know! Florida. USA. Shit, this would mean immediate closure and inquiry where I live. Vaccine shedders affecting the menstrual cycle, I have heard it all, I swear. I'll give credit where it's due: these conspiracy loonies have some sense of imagination.

Now excuse me as I continue to merrily bleed my mensies as usual and on schedule despite having safely and socially distant met up with 3 fully vaccinated people recently. Clearly, I deserve extra chocolate to reward my immune system for not falling prey to their shedding. PHEW, we did it, female body! *high fives uterus*

HaHa...even my crazy people aren't that crazy...knock wood...I think we have all been vaccinated here.
