So @GavinWilliamson and @BorisJohnson claimed that schools would be secure from the new strain

Looking at the latest advice from a SAGE sub committee it appears they are clearly being dishonest,this is so reckless its shocking

Without stringent control it will spread rapidly
Really reinforces the need to take every mitigation measure seriously

Lockdown recommended
School operations must be changed
LFTs as the only new measure is clearly inadequate

2m should be reinforced, additional aerosol transmission is a serious concern

Masks should be worn in classrooms!

Key points
Reduce indoor contacts wherever possible
Isolation important, definitely not recommending scrapping isolation for LFTs
Importance of good ventilation is vital

So how the hell are schools secure from the new strain when we've just another another day of clocking up 55k new cases and almost 1000 deaths?

What science is the government following?
Who are they listening to?
Certainly not their own scientists

After all this advice they ignore it and and just declare schools are safe and start gaslighting educators and communities with client media cheerleaders from the side.

US news are seeing 30 kids, no masks, no social distancing etc back in next week and are saying we're mad!

Can't help but feel that the government is listening to the skeptics on back benches and GBD supporters in the media above the nations health.

And this is the grim reality of what we face because the government is too busy appeasing skeptics in its base support https://twitter.com/dgurdasani1/status/1344333612347494401?s=19
