MANDATED VACCINES FOR NY EDUCATORS POLLS QUITE WELL IN NY (Updated with some Recent Covid Numbers)

 This is in the NY Post:

ALBANY — A majority of New Yorkers support mandatory COVID-19 vaccination requirements for teachers and other school employees, as well as indoor mask mandates, according to a new poll.

Sixty nine percent of registered voters agree that public school teachers and staff should be required to get the vaccine compared to 26 percent of those opposed, according to the new survey by Siena College released Tuesday.

The notion has even higher support in New York City — 72 percent — followed by a 71 percent support among suburbanites and 65 percent of upstate voters.

Eighty three percent of Democrats back the mandate, along with 55 percent of Republicans and 59 percent of Independent voters. 

New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio has mandated all city Department of Education employees get the shot or face termination — a move opposed by the powerful teachers union — but workers may apply for medical or religious exemptions. 

School districts outside the five boroughs can offer a little more flexibility, instructing employees to get the jab or opt to submit to weekly coronavirus tests, according to the state Health Department. 

Folks against the vaccine are dying, some conservative radio hosts iterally, on a hill that is very difficult to understand defending. We're now up to 1 in 500 Americans who have died due to this awful virus. That's 663,913 American residents.

Day 2… and 218 positive cases among staff and students….. yeaaaa this was a brilliant idea!! Everything is going great!

What good is it if they never force the students and they’ll never force the students.

Anonymous said...

that pretty much is a useless poll only designed to support one sides views on the mandate. I guarantee you if all those people polled were also asked Should teachers have to work harder and longer hours during the day and give up their summers to help the students - almost 100% would say YES absolutely.

218 cases out of a million? Is that bad?

Anonymous said...

Who gives a shit about this poll? The fact remains that NYC/UFT is the only teacher union job trying to mandate vaccines in the entire state. Gov says all school districts can have teachers test out.

Anonymous said...

Bus drivers and bus monitors should also be vaccinated. They sometimes deal with a very fragile population. But I think I saw in one of the upstate newspapers that there are no mandates for them in NYS.

The most damning article about vaccines yet
British doctors now openly beg for more lockdowns because they say they can’t rely on vaccines

This new piece from Reuters - hardly a outpost of anti-vax fanaticism - should terrify vaccine advocates.

And, honestly, scare the rest of us.

A reminder: Britain has pursued a mass vaccination strategy as aggressively as any country. It approved Pfizer’s vaccine even before the FDA. More than 80% of Britons are now fully vaccinated.

But Britain is in far worse shape than it was at this time last year, when no one was vaccinated. It is now averaging about 140 deaths a day, roughly 10 times as many as mid-September 2020. And hospitalizations and deaths continue to rise.

A million? LOL. How many were tested? Very few. No tests in my school yet.

This is the same union that didn't opt out (apply for a waiver) of teacher observations and APPR last year while the rest of the school districts in the state did.

James is so desperate to manufacture consent. Why can’t he be as honest as this Israeli Health Minister?

Imposing “green pass” rules on certain venues is needed only to pressure members of the public to get vaccinated, and not for medical reasons, Israeli Health Minister Nitzan Horowitz said on Sunday, ahead of the weekly Cabinet meeting,” reports Jewish News Syndicate.

Unaware that his words were being broadcast live to the nation on Channel 12, Horowitz told Interior Minister Ayelet Shaked that not only should the green pass be removed as a requirement to dine at outdoor restaurants, but also, “For swimming pools, too, not just in restaurants.”

“Epidemiologically, it’s true,” said Horowitz, adding, “The thing is, I’m telling you, our problem is people who don’t get vaccinated. We need [to influence] them a bit; otherwise, we won’t get out of this [pandemic situation].”

The health minister went on to acknowledge that the system wasn’t even being enforced in most venues.

Was it the UFT or DOE that should have opted out?

Who cares about the poll. 70% of people are either ignorant or stupid. No talk about natural immunity from the bureaucrat in a lab coat. The vaccinated who are clucking about the unvaccinated only care about themselves. They don't feel safe even after being vaccinated. So they think this will elevate their anxiety.It won't. They will find something else to be afraid of. They have been hopelessly GASLIT.
This is how it feels to be ruled by the mentally ill.

It doesn't matter what the dummies from the polls have to say, it matters what the courts rule on the matter. And just recently a NY federal court judge imposed a temporary injunction on behalf of a variety of plaintiffs from 17 area hospitals. The plaintiffs included doctors, nurses, and technicians. They argued that the vaccine employed aborted fetus cell lines in their testing, development, production and went against their religious beliefs.
This whole mess is going to end up with the Supreme Court soon and they will rule in favor of religious exemption as well as medical exemption. Have nice day. :)

Interesting how those clowns in Washington exempted themselves from the vaccine mandate. And you wonder why nobody with any sense trusts their government?

10:57, oh yeah, I'm sure all of those doctors, and nurses and technicians are soooo concerned about aborted fetuc cell lines in testing and development. Great for them that they found a loophole but they're not fooling anybody. Hell, even the Pope is wondering what the hell is wrong with those people. LOL. You're all a bunch of hypocrites who've been brainwashed into being afraid of a vaccine and now want to hide behind religion.

Do people really still put faith in polls? Polls are PR not real data.

The Veteran NY Teacher said...

No doubt the vaccine mandate and other restrictions announced by Biden will poll as more popular in places like NY and CA and less popular in other areas.

Is anyone surprised there will be cases of Covid (asymptomatic and otherwise) amongst the staff and students in our massive district during a pandemic? Given the science regarding kids and covid AND the effectiveness of the vaccine, I’m not at panic level.

Just an endangered CL said...

I'm sure the "polls" would also support teachers working longer hours and more days per year. One day James they will have a mandate that you don't approve of and others will cheer! Freedom dies in silence.

Just an endangered CL said...

Sorry 4:50, I didn't realize you said the same thing.
Useless poll indeed.

Too many people are believing the lies spread by politicians and their paid "scientists". The CDC is not collecting ALL the data on the side effects (they stopped doing that in May), instead they only collect data if the person was hospitalized. This skews the truth. There are some very extreme and long lasting side effects, of this "vaccine" that doesn't prevent getting COVID nor stop the asymptomatic spreading of it. How many staff members have you seen without masks? They're the vaccinated who are spreading this disease and go around parroting the media.

I'm vaccinated. I had a bad side effect. I regret allowing myself to be forced to get this vaccine so I could be "rewarded" by getting to work for the DOE. I fully support the unvaccinated and am against this mandate.

Anonymous said...

The anti-vaccine comments are depressing. If the anti-vaxxers would take the disease seriously-wear a mask, social distance- then I'd have more respect for them. True, most people don't die or end up in the hospital, but there is no way to know if that will be you.

I remember the morning of 9/11/2001, another teacher told me that her boyfriend called and said the twin towers were hit by an airplane. I scoffed at this. She brushed me aside. Of course she was right.

Sometimes, when people talk out of ignorance and don't want to listen, there's nothing more we can do.

Good luck to all.

218 positive cases out of a million is an argument that this is working and your post seems more argumentative and trying to find a "gotcha" moment than based on facts.

For those that say only a small amount get tested it also means that only a small amount of those not tested are showing symptoms, show a need to be evaluated, or are failing the screening. If these were flu numbers they would be remarkable for how low they are. No screening system is perfect but also keep in mind that if it's Day 2 those positives were NOT contracted in a school building. Screening found 218 that were not properly checked at home and tried to get in. That's an approx .000218% positivity rate.

I am open minded and fair but use logic when it comes to these arguments so come back a week from now with numbers 4:13 and then let's see if I agree with you but right now you proved the point that schools can be open.

The pro COVID people listen to nothing but right wing media. Facts are bothersome to them. I found this from AP.

"Now in Kentucky, one-third of new cases are under age 18," he said. Some children brought it home from summer camp and spread it to the rest of the family, and now, "between day care and schools and school activities, and friends getting together, there are just so many exposures."

In Alabama, hundreds of COVID-19 patients fill intensive care units, and one hospital contacted 43 others in three states to find a specialty cardiac ICU bed for Ray Martin DeMonia. It wasn't soon enough. The 73-year-old died Sept. 1.

"In honor of Ray, please get vaccinated if you have not, in an effort to free up resources for non-COVID related emergencies," his family pleaded in his obituary.

Anonymous said...

Let's face facts: Most teachers who are against the vaccine mandate simply do not want to continue to work in our shit hole schools and it has nothing to do with Covid. Bloomberg totally destroyed teaching as a career in NYC. Who could blame any teacher looking for a way out or a temporary reprieve from the hell that we have to deal with? After years of abusive working conditions via tyrant administration and an oppressive DOE management, most teachers are on "survival mode" just trying to get to that magic 55 pension.

Vermont, with the highest vaccination rate in the country — 88% of adults at least partially vaccinated & 79% fully vaccinated — is about to set a new high in COVID cases, just 3.5 months after Fauci said with 50% of adults vaccinated we wouldn’t see significant surges.

I would assume if a teacher gets a permanent exemption, with that exemption comes responsibilities. They basically shouldn’t be anywhere that has potential of it being spread. Certainly any accommodated employee shouldn’t be on airplanes , subways ,taking travel vacations etc. if I feel comfortable enough to travel (resume normal social activities in close quarters) ican be in a classroom

Doug, Follow the comment rules and I will print it. Standards that I expected in class from students are not too much to expect from adults. Anon 2323 usually finds reputable sources and when he does, I print the comments. I disagree with him often enough but at least he usually doesn't waste his time or my time quoting from far-right sources that fact-checkers easily debunk that I wouldn't accept from a high school student's assignment.

I understand that we are working from two sets of realities and it scares me. I saw this from a CNN poll yesterday:

"Among [Republicans], 78% said that Biden did not win enough votes to legitimately win the election. That's right: 8 in 10 Republicans think that Biden didn't win the election.
Which, well, wow. What those numbers make clear is that among Republicans, Donald Trump and the Big Lie he is telling are winning. Winning is a relative term, of course. Because building a political party around a lie is the quickest way to destroy a political party.
The Point: The Trump fever didn't break after the 2020 election. In fact, it's running hotter than ever."

Keeping Trump around motivated Democrats to come out and save Gavin Newsom in California big time. That said, two sets of realities are not good for the country, particularly in a pandemic where I think it is costing many lives needlessly.

"In the wake of Donald Trump's 2020 election defeat and the disappearance of the anonymous online account "Q" that once served as QAnon's inspiration, many people who spout QAnon’s false claims have hatched a new plan: run for school board or local office, spread the gospel of Q, but don’t call it QAnon.

"It's a scene that has played out at other school boards and comes as many local meetings have emerged in recent months as cultural flashpoints in a broader battle over the perceived encroachment of race-conscious education — sometimes separately lumped together under the label critical race theory."
