<p>In a stunning demonstration of the kind of heroism and courage we&#8217;ve come to expect from our public school teachers, a recent New York Times <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2020/07/18/opinion/sunday/covid-schools-reopen-teacher-safety.html">article</a> declares, &#8220;I Won’t Return to the Classroom, and You Shouldn’t Ask Me To.&#8221; The author, public school teacher Rebecca Martinson, pleads dramatically, &#8220;Please don’t make me risk getting Covid-19 to teach your child.&#8221;</p>
<p>Martinson repeatedly claims that she is &#8220;prepared&#8221; to jump in front of a bullet for the sake of her precious students, but, somehow, asking her to go to work in the face of a disease which an estimated <a href="https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/hcp/planning-scenarios.html">99.35 percent</a> of all people survive, is too much to bear. And that figure actually understates the absurdity. According to the <a href="https://www.acsh.org/news/2020/06/23/coronavirus-covid-deaths-us-age-race-14863">American Council on Science and Health</a>, the fatality rate for children is .0003 percent while the rate for adults 20-49  is .0092 percent. As <a href="https://data.cdc.gov/NCHS/Provisional-COVID-19-Death-Counts-by-Sex-Age-and-S/9bhg-hcku/data">CDC data</a> shows, over 60 percent of all COVID-19 deaths have occurred in the 75+ age bracket. Add in the 65-74 demo and you&#8217;ve accounted for 80 percent of all deaths. What this all means is that, with students ranging from about 4 to 18, and teachers with an average age of 41, schools are predominantly staffed and populated by people who have an exceedingly low risk of dying from the coronavirus.</p>
