Szamo's_Ammo Posted November 18, 2020 Share Posted November 18, 2020 3 minutes ago, Billy Jean King said: As at 12 November, around 1.2% of total absences are due to pupils who had a Covid-19 related sickness. This represents about 0.1% of all pupils. The recent rise in overall number of COVID-related absences is largely due to an increase in the number of pupils who are self-isolating. That's wonderful, if unsurprising, news that so few children are becoming sick.

Sturgeon said schools "aren't safe". Thank f**k for that. Maybe that'll finally satisfy those on this thread who claimed that admission was all they wanted and we can move back on to bickering about masks, or cycles or something 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Billy Jean King Posted November 18, 2020 Share Posted November 18, 2020 If parents didn't want to look after their disease-riddled sprogs then they shouldn't have chosen to have them in the first place.

Lyle Lanley Posted November 18, 2020 Share Posted November 18, 2020 if you're in Midlothian you can travel to the bottom of Fort Kinnaird through Whitehill Road but if you go further than B&Q, you're breaking the law. These rules do not make sense at all. Edinburgh and the Lothians should all be in the same tier. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Billy Jean King Posted November 18, 2020 Share Posted November 18, 2020 78% of schools have had no Covid at allExactly and of the 22% that have almost a half have had 2 or fewer cases. The anti schooling brigade are a laughing stock . Despite the stats they are continuing to perish on "shut the schools hill". 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Billy Jean King Posted November 18, 2020 Share Posted November 18, 2020 No symptoms= No test Let's all hug granny!No symptoms, no test is the policy across the majority of sectors it's not exclusive to schools but given the much reduced prevalence amongst children it seems fair enough. Ah the old granny hugging crap, the shouldn't be visiting granny if they are or hugging her hell mend them -5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can say similar for every border, the only way to avoid it is to have the whole country on the same tier, which makes even less sense. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What we want is a proper evaluation of the risk, and the appropriate measures applied. I'm fairly certain NS could put a flaming bag of shite on your doorstep and you'd find a way to avoid criticising her. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ayrmad Posted November 18, 2020 Share Posted November 18, 2020 (edited) 1 hour ago, Gordon EF said: Average life expectancy for women at 65 between 2017-19 was 21.1 years, taking them up to 86.1 years. No way life expectancy at 82 jumps to 13 years. That's only Todd stating that, all deaths and their age groups and their comorbidities will be agreggated then average loss found, it will certainly discredit the nonsense spouted on here early doors about everyone being at deaths door already.

Presumably testing capacity is keeping track with demand an no more. I also suspect it's the asymptomatic transmission that is key, right? Who cares if you are missing asymptomatic cases if they don't spread it. So the role of asymptomatic children in spreading is something that simple testing might find hard to pin down, if there are one or two symptomatic cases around in a close environment. Public health investigations are not easy. Must be pretty hard to find willing lab rats to be exposed... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David W Posted November 18, 2020 Share Posted November 18, 2020 1 hour ago, Gaz said: A pressure group made up of parents who advocated in the summer for schools to return full-time with no blended learning that has now morphed into a group full of anti-science sceptics who believe that children are immune to Covid and are not transmitters so can't pass it on to adults. Wiith absolutely no evidence of any link between the two, I would personally describe them as a Mumsnet castoff. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
