Medical experts have assured Australian parents a coronavirus cluster at a New Zealand school that has so far infected 94 people is no reason to fear sending their children back to classrooms

.

New Zealand health officials have refused to release details of exactly how many of those cases were teachers, how many were students and how many were people who have never set foot in the school. According to one report the number of students was as few as 12.Ricky Wilson / Stuff Dr Wiles said the global reviews of literature about children and COVID-19 showed infection in minors was possible but "very rare". The more dangerous part of going back to school would be parents hanging out and chatting at drop-off and pick-up, she said. "It's not like if you send your kids to school they're all going to come home with COVID."

No reason What would you think a good reason would be. Give us an answer.

Have they told Dan Andrews?

Maybe because this is not fucking Aukland and the virus is not that damn deadly. FFS the UK experts downgraded it on March 19, why is Aus. media still trying to pretend it's catastrophic here.

LOL

This awesome. Guess I will have my daughter with here when it’s time

wendyleslie121 Riiiiiiiiiiight.............................

😂😂 is this a joke? No need to fear. Until the parents, grandparents get it

Stop writing sensational headings to confuse people.

Suuure

Yeah, right. That will be a big no from me.

All these LNP supporters can ever do is roll out the old communist, socialist, union rah rah rah

Thought jacindaardern said NZ had beaten the virus?

Just as another Victorian school closes due to Covid19. Timing is everything, isn’t it..?

Can you exactly name MEDICAL EXPERTS? Who is that?

Maybe Dan Tehan and PM should pop over there and have a quick chat with all the infected children, teachers and families about the outbreak as the children, teachers and families are ‘safe’

Really?

Yeah but dan andrew's is a comunest who takes away my freedem so schols must re'open now 😠

School being closed in Victoria because of covid

That case was poorly managed and testing denied to alot of people sadly

What horseshit, the size of the room was small therefore it won’t happen again. You can’t make this up.

Lies

We need lockdowns to stop the spread of the Chinese flu but at schools, we don’t need to be fearful of sending kids back..... Ok. Message now completely understood I’m to shut down all thought. Don’t confuse myself with facts Seriously someone should be challenging these medical experts as what they say often makes no logical sense.
