Who is the one or they that say this ?

Schools are full of adults. Your article says people with health conditions at risk, yet the govt have paused shielding so the highest risk, extremely vulnerable are under pressure to return to work in schools. Also overseas study - which have measures in our govt won’t put in

How? If at school they are exposed to more people than at home? That’s why the students that have gone to school are already having outbreaks. That makes a lot of sense.

100% chance of NOT getting Covid-19 anywhere ....

Utter nonsense propoganda. The Govt trying to divert attention away from their Forcing kids and teachers into unventilated crowded classrooms without social distancing and masks!

funny when schools started in USA and in Israel then school had to close and there covid numbers went up. and its kids not teenagers who are the ones who show best numbers still great that we can test schools here when there not open

I can see the logic there 🙄
