uk.news.yahoo.com/covid-record-n… record number of CHILDREN admitted to hospital in a single day with COVID....but sure try to force me to send my kids unvaccinated with 100s other unmasked kids & reject HEPA filters then get the attendance officer on me When I say NO. Try it. Let's go.
Any reason why you've mentioned the increase in older people being hospitalised but missed out the children? @SkyNews ??
@BBCNews you too? 117,000 CHILDREN suffering with long covid now and climbing it's getting worse check out ONS it's where you got your other statistics! Whilst you're there check out the biggest rise in children's admissions with COVID... see above!! No one else reporting. why?
Primary school have no masks, no vaccines, no HEPAfilters, still singing (even though we know this causes more aerosols to hang in the air) still nothing more than handgel and a window (often closed so reopened by my 9 yr old) COVID spread last term like this and they are now.
High school - some rooms have no external windows/doors that my kids is taught in, choir still timetabled for 100 kids at a time, NO vaccine (if you're 11 like my son in the first year )-yet with over 1000 students a day. No HEPA filters here either. #SafeEdForAll

🧵@thismorning you might want to check out some facts before your presenters spout nonsense about kids in masks. They're not wearing them to protect us they're wearing them to protect themselves. Now adults are all vaxed we've thrown them under a bus.
2)These are not my stats these are ONS data the same place you get the stats for everything else take a look! Don't take my word!
117000 kids now have long covid
14000 for over a year or more
120 children DEAD- THIS ISN'T A LOW NUMBER children aren't meant to die! To put into
3)Perspective it is now in the top 5 causes of death amongst children to measure it only against elderly people dying is wrong. No medical expert has ever treated a child for wearing a mask they have however treated children for the effects of COVID (below stats on LC higher now)
It's UNCONSCIONABLE that a government could ignore serious illness, long covid & deaths in children. Therefore they don't mention it shh!! -then we can pretend it's not happening & we can all continue being played.
New Zealand total deaths 51 entire pandemic. CHILD deaths UK 120
It was never "inevitable" our government have chosen this. Chosen for us to live with this amount of death & illness in our country.
Children deserve better. 70,000 living with long covid 13000 for a year or more. 1000 per month hospitalised since Sept, 512 in week before Xmas.
Now they send them back to school unvaccinated... my 11 year old in high school & 9 year old in primary.
No adequate VENTILATION.
UNACCEPTABLE.
Nothing in primary. Nothing.
🧵1/6 IF THE SCHOOLS CLOSE it's also on the parents & teachers that didn't SPEAK UP!! Those that left it to us FEW to ask for REAL mitigations. Those that didn't stand up for their vulnerable colleagues & show support-that couldn't be arsed wearing a mask to help them or the kids
2)those that didn't even master keeping windows open, those that pushed for concerts/singing & shows or didn't use their voices to challenge it & turned a blind eye when we told you this would happen
MITIGATIONS would've prevented RESTRICTIONS & CLOSURES
So if it does ITS ON YOU
3)For those that DID (parents & staff) have the courage to speak to Headteachers, (or indeed if you were one who spoke out) who raised concerns to DfE, SLT & MPs who emailed, tweeted & challenged thankyou! Those who tried hard in their schools to go beyond guidance & invested in
🧵69000 children But you're too busy enjoying afternoon tea to care Until it affects YOUR CHILD. Why are you OK letting them sing in class with no ventilation, no mitigations? You talk of mental health & what these kids have missed? Ha ALLOW ME to inform you what they've missed
Just UK nos: 69000 have long covid (ask them about their mental health)
112 are dead (you can't ask them)
12000 kids have been orphaned or lost a caregiver, thousands more are now acting as carers as their parents struggle with the disease. But you want to talk mental health? ...
Show me 1 kid who's been damaged as a result of swapping singing in a non ventilated room for something equally as exciting in a lesson plan. Do Percussion? Rhythm & clapping? How about use SIGN LANGUAGE to a song? You know that inclusivity you bang on about PUT IT INTO ACTION!
Ok I'm not allowed to know of ANY cases in my daughters class or how many are still missing(I took her out last wk when 6 were absent in her class, knowing cases were in school)kids coughing & not being sent home. So decided my voicemail on the absent line this morning will be...
"Good morning Nancy is STILL absent due to an infectious AIRBORNE virus swirling in her class, however if this is not the case feel free to correct me & I'll bring her in later" onus on them for absence. All I got.
This Silence is sinister.
Head has never spoken to me. Not once
Emailed in the end so it's there in black and white for a paper trail..... I'll let you know if I get a call.
