Shocking.

@JanFebAnyMonth

What on earth are they covering up??

The fact that parents will be made very unwell simply due to their children being in school.

"The fact that parents will be made very unwell simply due to their children being in school."

Hmm, well I really hope that the children aren't also made very unwell.

Yes that too, but few children would expect to be hositalised, although I do not minimise long covid risk for children.

But the hospital beds would be adults mostly presumably.

iSAGE at yesterday’s meeting expressed their concern at the suppression of data and said that the only explanation for that, combined with the lack of measures in schools all along, that they could think of was a herd immunity strategy.
