Government plan on treating covid as of its the flu in children, scrapping isolation, I notice this is basically accepted as going to happen despite no official statement yet, once again we've learned of major changes through leaks to papers inews.co.uk/news/schools-t…
And the CRG are now arguing that we should just stop testing children.
The article above quotes a Labour MP saying why wait, scrap protections now.

I said the RW lobbyists would coopt scientists in the same way they have on climate change,would create a network of astroturf orgs and then use RW papers and political vested interests to get UK to accept mass infection #edutwitter#r4today
🧵LBC this morning claims were made that hundred of students are isolated after 1 positive case
A Tory peer claimed 300 students isolating from 1 LFD
Telegraph launches campaign to end isolation.
Hundreds from 1 test?
I'm calling shenanigans on this, gaslighting disinformation
2/ Reality is the Gov asked SAGE to redo roadmap modelling to include high transmission in younger age groups to reach herd immunity faster via infection.
3/ The majority of the media are so obsessed with their own agendas they are smothering the truth with a bombardment of lies and government propaganda.
Hancock taking the hit this week means few have reported the new herd immunity via infection plan
1/🧵Manipulating narrative is in part which stories editors choose to lead on.
Today
The Hancock story is going to suppress the more important story that the gov asked for SAGE to model high transmission in younger age groups to reach herd immunity via infection #edutwitter
2/ Andrew Lloyd Webber another big headline. Data from trials is being suppressed, we are reminded that other data that could be positively spun was delayed.
But they won't mention case data in education still isn't being published since May
December she says schools are safe, chance of transmission is minimal
Now she says just ignore covid in school
Why do media always find ppl arguing to remove isolation whi won't call for ventilation to cut transmission? 1/
2/ "80% of over 16s have antibodies"
Equating prior infection and 1 jab as immune is dangerous and wrong.
Prior infection means immune is an important narrative of the anti vax movement and she's propagating it
