"So with the current measures being ramped up do you now feel it is the correct time to close schools x" Yea I do vulnerable people come into contact with the young who may not show any or just mild symptoms . Feels like a mass cull | |||

"No. The impact that that will have on businesses would be dire. The young are not at great risk. Leave them open as long as we can. " this, and that’s what people are not getting, it’s the old and those with underlying health problems that are at the greatest risk, i had it back in january, and i only realised today after taking to a healthcare worker about the symptoms that i did have it, lasted about 4 or 5 days then was fully recovered after a couple more, i would like the media to start reporting on the people who have had the virus and come out the other end, there’s 10s of thousands of them | |||

"No. The impact that that will have on businesses would be dire. The young are not at great risk. Leave them open as long as we can. " This. And healthcare/social care etc. It needs balancing up and the impacts on losing healthcare workers etc would probably be more damaging at the moment. I get the whole timing thing | |||

"My confusion is don’t go to pubs and clubs but large groups of students and staff can congregate" The common fact is that children don't generally succumb to the Virus, but unwittingly can be carriers. Also, schools have large numbers of adults working there. | |||

"Our care agency (looking after the elderly) has a workforce made up of parents who work minimum hours due to having kids. Once the schools close those staff will not work because they have no childcare. We (and other companies) will be in the shit. Does that not make staff and pupils pawns in a bigger picture x This has a knock on effect to staff we employ, service users, social services. " | |||

Closing schools will take more workers out of the economy as they stay home for childcare. That being said, I have every sympathy for schools managing safely, with staff numbers unknown on any given day. | |||

"Teachers are parents too Many may be needed to look after their own children or family members but currently seem like childminders for all the inadequacies in society x" If they have to look after their own family because they’re ill then they will. They can’t go to work anyway of its because family are showing symptoms. I think the reason schools will close in the end is lack of staff probably. | |||

"Yes. I think its bloody stupid to allow children to congregate (little germ factories that they are). The rationale that old people will be more protected if kids go to school makes no sense to me. A lot of grandparents are caring for these kids already." Well they shouldn’t be from now on. It all makes perfect sense to me. | |||

"Im a Teacher in a special needs school, the general feeling with staff is the school will close on Friday until after the Easter holidays or longer. But there is a great uncertainty about this so news will come in on a daily basis we guess. Already parents are keeping their children away from the school and attendancies are down xx" Mine goes to a special school. I imagine they’ll be the first to close. They can’t lose staff as a lot have one to one care so it can’t happen. | |||

"Our NHS staff have to work so who will look after their children? What about vulnerable children in abusive environments or abused themselves. What about the neglect of the children? Will they be fed. Will parents genuinely isolate their children if schools close or are they going to be mixing anyway? Some parents don’t even seem to like their children after the first hour. I think schools will close in time for an extended Easter break - always supposing that they can be staffed that long. I would like a clean and clear break for a while but then I worry about the children. Can’t win. " These are all issues that we've been discussing at our school. It is possible that we could still provide some provision for a small number of students. We are also looking at the possibility of supermarket vouchers for kids on free school meals. | |||

"The risk is the parents at the school gate. So If coaches and buses were laid on, like the yellow buses in the US, parents could self isolate/work as required. Common sense will beat this." The problem is: If one child brings it into school, a hundred kids could take it home with them. | |||

They still expect me to send him in even though hes asthmatic surely they would understand the reason to why I'm keeping him off until this blows over they said it would be an unmarked absence and i would have the education fine me for keeping him off because hes in the risk category for potentially getting the coronavirus I would tell the education authority that you have a cough and everyone in the house has to isolate What can they do !!!"

Our school have said they won't impose the usual rules if children fail to attend. " Theres several kids in my lads year that are asthmatic and only one parent isn't sending her boy as he gets really bad with his chest, I've witnessed it myself but because my lad isn't as bad they still want me to send him | |||

"Teachers are parents too Many may be needed to look after their own children or family members but currently seem like childminders for all the inadequacies in society x" Well said. | |||

"Yes. I think its bloody stupid to allow children to congregate (little germ factories that they are). The rationale that old people will be more protected if kids go to school makes no sense to me. A lot of grandparents are caring for these kids already. Well they shouldn’t be from now on. It all makes perfect sense to me. " So who's gonna pick them up from school? Parents at work. Grandparents isolating. Kids carrying viruses. Might as well make teachers use their 4 years at uni in order to babysit for another few hours till 6 o'clock. | |||

" i had it back in january, and i only realised today after taking to a healthcare worker about the symptoms that i did have it, lasted about 4 or 5 days then was fully recovered after a couple more, i would like the media to start reporting on the people who have had the virus and come out the other end, there’s 10s of thousands of them " I'm not saying your wrong, I had very similar symptoms and so did many people I know, but I'm sure it was something else! | |||

I had that one as well. It wasn't covid-19. If it was, everyone you know would have caught it. You would know people that died of it. It didn't spread to the entire population. There were not hundreds of thousands of deaths. It wasn't covid-19. | |||

"September is my bet Me too" My guess is they'll be back in June sometime - that will be ten weeks from now. There'll be overwhelming pressure from parents (and probably kids too!) by that stage - plus the virus should be on the decline. Fingers crossed! | |||
