Only 25 million people are expected to get the vaccine next year, so I wouldn't get too excited just yet.
Rapid testing, masks and therapeutic treatments are the key to controlling this, and always have been. But we've all become so fixated with the vaccine that we've been lulled into thinking the pandemic is almost over.
Lucky you having a holiday in the first placeI worked flipping hard to provide remote learning for my students and would do so again if asked. Basically eliminating my holiday is a spit in my face

It's all I've done since the original lockdown regardless of term time.Right but during term time I'm basically just working, eating, sleeping and shitting, not in any particular order

Baffled about people jetting off on holiday during it all.
Why is it eliminated it’s moved to a time of the year that is more suitable for the masses and for the good of all these people that keep saying close the schools. It’s give and take
Tbf that's what I have been doing all week every week. Same as many others.Right but during term time I'm basically just working, eating, sleeping and shitting, not in any particular order

Erm, yes. Including a few night shifts and weekends.You haven't still had to go in though, right?
What do you then do to exams? Why are you assuming we're all shit at providing a remote education?

I understand that. It's a shit situation all round. We're all doing things within our jobs that we'd rather not be doing, and add in to the mix that we can't do all the enjoyable things in life. It makes life really tough.I get that, but my workload went through the roof with remote learning and has done again since the return when FYI I still haven't been able to teach close to normally. Aside from those in the health service it's probably been one of the most intensive jobs this year
If I could send you the home schooling we received I would, but if it took an hour to produce I would be amazed and it was mainly produced by the teaching assistants and this from a school that is in the top two in Nuneaton.
I have three children of different ages and different abilities to try to teach as well as having to work full time nights.
Maybe it will improve as the head has disappeared from the school.
I agree a lot are strained and teachers too.My mistake, sorry I wasn't sure. You must admit though there aren't many professions that have been put under this much strain

Others are silently under a lot of pressure. I've only got Christmas Day off, I'll be back in on Monday.
Why? We’ll be expected to deliver online learning...Close the schools for four weeks and then cut the summer holidays to two weeks.
From the land of Eternia...It's the unicorn Variant.
Our approach has never been to minimise the number of cases, its been not to overwhelm the NHS. So once you've got the groups that make up the vast majority of hospitalisations vaccinated then you can start opening things back up.Saw something that said you only need a few million vaccinated to prevent something like 75% of deaths. I don’t think we’ll have to get anything like everyone vaccinated before we are back to normal.

If we can get anywhere close to the rate of vaccination the government is claiming we can that will be in time for the summer, when going by last year, things will ease off anyway.
But it certainly won't be back to normal overnight.
Sorry it just grates me to hear remote learning dismissed when I was putting in pretty much all hours of the day I wasn't asleep into it for months.
Same here. Although if we're lucky and its quiet on Christmas Eve we get to leave an hour early. Of course it won't be quiet as we've got rid of so many staff, blaming it on covid, those of us left are now swamped with work. Still at least I'm one of the lucky ones that still has a job.I agree a lot are strained and teachers too.

I can only comment on what I saw and it was honestly laughable and when the kids sat down to do it they could do the whole weeks work in about an hour. Like I said the head has gone and the new temporary head is younger and fresher so it may improve.
New strains happen all the time, there's already multiple strains of Covid-19 so try not to get too down about it. This sort of thing is expected and the vaccines shouldn't be impacted.
If you look back the strain that came out of Wuhan originally has pretty much gone now, think there was 8 major strains back in the summer so this is just one more on the list. Think they're over playing this as its a get out for not putting the right restrictions in place for Christmas.
The amount of fuck ups how can anyone be certain we’ll get lots of people vaccinated....it will be problem after problem
useless cunts
