@dr_musgrave,I’m struggling to see how you can justify tweeting these comments as a medical practitioner…It is almost as if you are living/working in a parallel universe?

In the NorthEast the #NHS is under huge pressure & elective surgery has again been cancelled due to #Covid.
A v good friend/teacher (doubly vaccinated)has recently been v unwell, she caught #COVID19 from a pupil in her class.
Many other teachers in the school became ill.

In the few weeks before the end of term, #COVID19 literally ripped through #NorthEast schools & communities.
I am certain that no one wants children to be off school unnecessarily but if cases in school children spiral out of control once more, education will almost certainly be disrupted, again affecting children in the most deprived areas the most.

Terrifying thread, thank you @tweetsbyames for all the gory details, do read them all👇🏼.
The #PrimeMinister is a brutal & narcissistic egomaniac who shouldn’t be allowed to plan a children’s tea party, let alone be in charge during a pandemic!

1/11 Just for 1 minute, put acute #COVID & #LongCovid to one side.

How exactly do those in the #DfE, #UsForThem, #CRG & the #HartGroup intend to protect children from more educational disruption w/ a highly contagious virus whirling its way through schools across the UK?

How?
2/The ongoing educational damage done by CHOOSING NOT to adequately & effectively mitigate for an #airborne virus w/in UK schools (English esp) was completely avoidable.

IT WAS (& CONTINUES TO BE) A CHOICE, sanctioned by Gvmt AND a mostly complicit media.
3/ Our political leaders chose to follow a THEORETICAL #HerdImmunity “strategy” with a novel virus which RELIED ON unmitigated spread within young, fit parts of society & FACTORED IN that sadly some of those would also become seriously ill or die.

1) Morning @GavinWilliamson, just reading the update from @PHE_uk @GOVUK below ⬇️.
gov.uk/government/pub…
2) Wondering how this particular bit of advice ⬇️ will play out in schools & early years settings after #Easter?

Crowded poorly ventilated classrooms w/ up to 30 kids from different households are the very essence of HIGH RISK spaces. Dining rooms/PE halls could even be worse!
3) If I’ve understood it correctly anywhere in the RED AREAS needs extra attention?

INDOORS ✅
HIGH OCCUPANCY ✅
SILENT, SPEAKING, SHOUTING, SINGING, PHYSICAL EXERTION ✅
POORLY VENTILATED ✅
& NO FACE COVERINGS ⬆️ THE RISK

Thread: Details of testing in schools is out 😅🤣😂😲🥴🤢🤮

Got to be kidding, as if we needed any more proof the DfE is totally out of touch, this could be the crowning glory.

Unbelievable

Reads more like a PR exercise than a Public Health initiative

2/ Worth beginning with the press release earlier today, dont worry not much work you just need to use January Inset day to retrain as public health officials.

Note that many support staff won't be in as schools cut their training to save money years ago
3/ Step 1 retrain and retitle staff.

100 tests a day will need 9 staff, 11-13 tests an hour per testing bay, so we either need to spend all day testing or have a lot of bays.

How many staff do they think we have in 10 years into a retention crisis deepened by covid?
