overreaction? >> yes. and in fact they are not balancing the priorities in our society correctly. at this point, these kinds of surges that we're seeing with omicron and delta, this could be our new normal going forward. every year or every few months even we could be seeing these massive surges of cases. the key is for us to get people vaccinated and to make sure they have optimized immunity through boosters if necessary, so that we're able to protect people from having severe illness, protect our society from huge disruptions. we cannot shutter our schools. we cannot close our businesses. in particularly we cannot harm our children, especially the most disadvantaged, even more. if you are a vaccinated and boosted teacher, and you're wearing a high quality mask at school, your chance of contracting covid is very low. your chance of getting severely ill is even lower. there should be no reason why teachers unions are going on strike for themselves and when it comes to children, they have been harmed so much by schools being closed.
