    As to my use of muppet, are you gonna be knocking on the door of your doctors demanding to get the vaccine, or are you like me and waiting your turn and thinking of asking to be on a reserve list? I would add that because of my work situation just now, i dont think i could ask for a place on the reserve list because i will likely get my vaccine in the next 6-8 weeks.
    But teachers aren't in rooms of up to 30 people. Schools are off but this has been going on for weeks while some people have had to work in the face of the public from the first day of the Pandemic.

    I won't be knocking on my doctors door no, because I don't feel I am a priority, despite having been back at work since June. Muppets with health issues deemed not serious enough to fall into phase one I'd have absolutely no issues with 'chapping on their doctors door'.

    Lockdown 1, only hubs were opened for essential workers with very few pupils. Transmission risk extremely low.
    August, all staff and pupils back unless shielding. After a few weeks, every other day there seemed to be school outbreak after school outbreak.
    Lockdown 2, after initial closure, all schools taking in pupils in excess of the lockdown 1 numbers. Mitigations in place like reduced rosters.
    This week all p1-3 pupils have been back, and the desire is to have all pupils back soon, but there is now testing.

    So having been at no risk, being in the thick of it, teachers and their staff are about to be subjected to 30 a class, unless they make a late decision on blended learning!

    I think my work was closed for a month at the start of this, and we have gone from reduced hours to a short spell back to normal, and yet again on reduced hours. The expectation is we are back to normal next month, but i think i will have been vaccinated before that actually happens.

    Again thought, i feel you are misrepresenting what i mean as a muppet, as someone with a health issue as is published by the JCVI who thinks they have been missed out, should be knocking the door down and asking why or why not!
