SHORT THREAD ON SCHOOLS AND COVID:

Last week I highlighted that cases in kids were rising rapidly again - less than 90 days after the *massive* January surge.

This week Dept for Education released lastest school disruption data... 1/3
We saw that half term following Jan peak decline resulted in thankfully v few kids off in early March.

But this has *massively* increased last few weeks - more than tripled since early March - both primary and secondary. 2/3 Image
We are also seeing rapid increases in the number of teachers off school (for any reason) - back up to levels last seen in Jan with 9% of staff absent.

We must not pretend that these frequent school waves are not causing a LOT of educational disruption. #MakeSchoolsSafer 3/3 Image

Morning @susannareid100 & @piersmorgan, just catching up on your discussion w/ experts on #schools.

How long will it take to get the desperately needed laptops to those kids without them & sort out WiFi issues?
Why the physical & #mentalhealth of staff & parents is dismissed so easily in every single discussion?
Parents & grandparents have died. Teachers have died! 3/4

It’s left me speechless 😶...!
What a waste of time. Why bother just to repeat the same OLD nonsense. A #HerdImmunity “strategy” MUST still be the plan, using pupils as the “herd” & accepting the staff & families as collateral.
2/A human experiment based on an ideological theory which has already been shown to be disastrous in Sweden. There can be NO OTHER EXPLANATION 4 the refusal to even TRY to #MakeSchoolsSafer in the face of such high disease prevalence. It keeps transmission going & parents at work
3/It’s utterly irresponsible & negligent to refuse to put in BASIC PUBLIC HEALTH SAFETY MEASURES that we ALL know are needed to ⬇️ the risk of catching a potentially lethal #Airborne virus & ⬇️ #LongCovid in 1000s of others. Measures used ACROSS THE WORLD!😷,ventilation, rotas...
