⚠️ Another Clinically Vulnerable Family in court.

This family had 2 children with a rare genetic condition which limits their ability to respond to infections.

They had RETURNED to school for a year when their Local Authority issued a summons.

1/
The prosecutions related to absences from a time *before* these highly vulnerable children were vaccinated.

The parents went to court, initially before Christmas without representation due to incredibly short notice (postal strikes were blamed).

They pleaded "NOT GUILTY".

2/
However, they were (like our previous family) also taken to a side room and advised to plead guilty by the prosecution lawyer. They were also told that they didn't need legal representation as nobody else usually does in these cases.

Following @michaelgove's ridiculous suggestion to remove child benefits from families absent from school - rather than tackling the cause - @BBCPolitics discussed the topic.

@CamillaTominey might be interested to know that the government *do* know where the missing kids are.

Clinically Vulnerable Families and @LongCovidKids have serious unaddressed concerns.

The majority of children not in schools from Clinically Vulnerable Families are in housesholds denied safe learning environments. Off-rolled in the interests of the school, not the child.

How do we know the government knew?

We told them. We phoned, we emailed, we attended an APPG on Coronavirus.

@LaylaMoran spoke to @GavinWilliamson in parliament and then met with @NickGibbUK where she outlined the issues we were facing... the issues that we *still face*.

I felt terribly sick on Saturday. Sore throat, flu symptoms, heavy head. My rapid test is negative. All my friends have #COVID19. Literally everyone. 349 cases in my kids school last week.Overcrowded and zero #ventilation. Sick teachers & sick kids. @ScholaEuropaea @JHahnEU

On Sunday the Far right of 🇪🇺 comes to Brussels to create appalling chaos. The unspeakable violence...the politicians scape goating others... It's a lawless crowd & they don't hear our prayers. 2/
Belgian 🇧🇪Twitter Pandemic experts fight over CST: vaccine obligations. Yeah, in this first world, this is the drama. My right to not wear a face covering or take a vaccine. Not about the health consequences of the children & vulnerable. 😥 3/

I recognize a lot of names in the list of authors

Classmates

Colleagues

Mentors

They are wise, and know far more about #InfectiousDiseases and #epidemiology than I do

It is important to look at what this report does and does not say

@COVIDSciOntario
I don’t think there is anyone who would disagree with the message in these slides

Closing schools is a bad thing

Remote learning is disruptive and can lead to worse educational outcomes

As with everything in this #pandemic, poor and marginalized families far worst

But…
In this slide the #ScienceTable argues that vaccination reduces the risks to children

Currently less than 50% of the 5-11 cohort is double vaccinated

Once again the risk is greatest for our #children with comorbidities or low socioeconomic status

They admit they don’t know…

We are happy to welcome students from Std 1 onwards #BackToSchool on Dec 1. Safe resumption of schools is being considered to ensure all students have equal access to education amidst the pandemic. @CMOMaharashtra @AjitPawarSpeaks @scertmaha @MahaDGIPR @msbshse @Balbharati_MSBT
Usage of masks will be mandatory for children at all times. Teachers and school staff to ensure strict compliance to masking up. #BackToSchool #maskmandate @bb_thorat @INCIndia @IYCMaha
For the safety of the staff & students, vaccination has been made mandatory for teachers/staff. Only fully vaccinated staff will be allowed in premises. School transport operators also must be fully vaccinated. #SafeSchools #VaccineMandate

How can CV/CEV households keep safe exposed by schools?

We need #SAFESCHOOLS
Families are in impossible situations.

We don't want to withdraw our kids and deny them formal education. We want our human rights to be conserved #educationANDlives.

#RemoteEd - extended to those isolating denied to those with households at risk.

What choices do we have?
If we take any days off we face fines, prosecutions and social services. Blunt tools aimed at those taking term-time holidays or school refusers.

Last school year, families had to battle for lives.

Even when attendance *wasn't* compulsory our members were receiving threats.

1: It's time to claim my space. I was one of just a few journos who held @AndrewLamingMP to account prior to 2021. I lived in Bowman from 2012-2017 and I reported on him via @margokingston1's @NoFibs. AN EVOLVING THREAD on #Laming #LGBTQ equality #Journalism #Books and more.
2: It began in 2013 when I submitted an article on #MarriageEquality to Margo's #CitizenJournalism news site @NoFibs. Up until then, the site had not really covered that issue, which mattered a lot to me. @MrKRudd had just announced his support for reform: nofibs.com.au/burgewords-on-…
3: The image above is of Senator Sue Boyce (@SenatorSue) former LNP Senator for Queensland, crossing the floor to become the first LNP politician in the country to vote for marriage equality. It was a short walk but it gave the #LGBTQ community hope.

1/ Thread: Don't mean to join the tin foil hat brigade but I have concerns the rate of infections in schools is being suppressed from public knowledge.
In March the government made NHS bed capacity its key metric for success. This led to people being put into care homes without
2/ testing, and other measures to free up bed space while the Nightingales were prepared.
Ignoring the death toll, government ministers continue to cite their management of the first wave as a success due to the NHS not being overwhelmed.
3/ In the Summer under pressure from papers and some poor messaging from Labour "no ifs no buts" a full reopening of school became another metric of success that I have heard MPs mention as a sign of good governance.

an old saw from Mike Parson’s campaign:
random rural yard signs to
applaud Mike’s designs to
continue his post-Greitens reign.
In this specimen Parson would take in
uninformed voters in County Macon. 1/2 🔥 #mogov 🗳️

as school districts may soon sink, not swim
in each piteous scene
of a mass quarantine as
new cases exceed counties’ brim.
Yet the venue’s the same:
still in Macon. Why no
mask mandate? Parson’s mistaken.

National Guard, unlike Mike,
at this moment works hard
citizens to protect.
Parson’s lies we reject,
evidenced by his COVID scorecard.
Folks still ask: why no #MaskUp
mandate? Parson’s post outweighs
the #ShowMe State.
