Text on the left is from UK government guidance to higher education. Text on the right is from UK government guidance to schools (updated 17 Sept). Why the difference? Is it something to do with the magic protective bubbles they have in schools? @Parents_Utd @ConcernedofBri1

Here's a good illustration of the magic bubbles that are apparently going to minimise transmission (except in practice many of the bubbles will have a hundred or more individuals).

And here's why masks are necessary in indoor spaces (including schools).

This business about masks having "a negative impact on teaching" is reminiscent of discussions about using condoms. Yeah, maybe the experience is not quite as good for you, but we're in a pandemic! #NoGloveNoLove #NoMaskNoClass

Masks are mandated in schools in Japan, South Korea, Spain, France. Why not UK? British exceptionalism again? (we saw how well that worked out in spring).
