Why this petition matters

Started by Beverly Shiotelis

Governor Kemp, 

You have been a strong advocate for keeping our schools open during this pandemic.  You have even proposed a bonus for all educators for their work throughout this very challenging time.

However, if you really appreciate us, you will protect us and our families by allowing us to have priority 1A access to the Covid vaccine.  As a group, we have more exposure to more people in close range than any of the other groups waiting to be vaccinated.  Students are not the best at keeping their nose/mouth covered, and we are in close proximity to them in the classrooms, while they're all unmasked eating their lunch/snacks, and throughout our entire day.  As educators, we do not have the ability to be shielded behind a plexiglass screen, we are literally FACE-TO-FACE with our students all day.   

If you appreciate us, protect us. Release the vaccine for all educators in Georgia NOW.
