Can somebody explain why the kids coming from affected areas aren't being quarantined the same as the adults were.
We are relying on them and their parents to ensure this, so why didn't we rely on the adults returning from affected areas to do the same.
Three schools in Cheshire self isolating.

What if parents are at work and kids nip out, go to mackies for a bit. Go and meet their mates.

I am not sure but I am hearing that thus far children appear to not be affected by this virus. At least that has been widely reported not sure if it's true?

Metro says some have flu like symptoms, also the adults were checked but still had two weeks quarantine.

I just think it's too dangerous to take risks like this. All it takes is one person to go out and spread it.
