The study also found staff members were more likely to be affected by the virus than students, though not more likely than the general population as a whole.
She told Sky News:"I think the problem for me at the moment is, if we have someone in the school who is symptomatic, we know that we have to send them home, we know that if they are tested and the tests are positive, that we contact our local public health office who will then give us further guidance.
Prime Minister Boris Johnson wants all pupils to return to school next month, saying it is the"right thing for everybody".Professor Whitty said:"The first thing to say is that the evidence that not going to school damages children in the long run is overwhelming and that includes their long-term chances.
Professor Whitty has said the reopening of schools will"put pressure" on the R number and could lead to the closure of pubs and shops at a local level.
Well, seen as children haven’t been at school then this makes perfect sense! Bore off with Covid and it’s 99.7% survival rate I’m well over it
Less than 50% of children returned to schools in June and in some areas schools closed after a week because of infection. Most of these children were from homes where the parents worked with covid patients so were far more likely to spread the virus.
PHE are government lackies, the government has not protected anyone but themselves and Chris Whitty is a doom sayer that’s will not pay the price if he is actually wrong 🤔🤔🤔🤔
So they catch it at home and spread it at school...
What a terrible news channel
Im confused.. How are you more likely to catch COVID-19 at home than out and about? 🤔
Didn’t think it would be long until the remainers blamed Covid on Brexit....and here it is
Three total non stories.
How about changing the record?
Sorry to say, but Chris Whitty and associate's has been tarnished by Cummings Johnson an Co.
So kids are more likely to catch at home rather than from a school with several hundred people on it 🤯
