...Greetings to Anyone who may read.
The Media/News is making a fuss, as if confused, as to why that Virus-thing has recently "peaked"/"increased" again. Coincidentally this is just as "Children" have been sent back to School...
...Someone has thought that this Virus was a thing which was generally unable to be gained/transmitted/spread --- until any Human is at least 18 Years old, maybe...?
Apparently, especially here in London, a "Child" - including Teenagers - cannot possibly be spreading any so-called virus at all --- despite all of them shouting, hugging, pushing, spitting, grabbing, yelling, crowding, bullying, non-mask-wearing, food-sharing, celebrating... each other...?
...I just wanted to 'air' this... for any second "lockdown" occurring, as I am (currently forced to be) staying in London. It is not fair. & As I said, *why* is anyone surprised about it??
(This turned out to be a RANT. Sorry! Ignore it if You like, Anyone --- but This Forum is quite tolerant of such things, though, so I try to Post it anyway to see if anyone else understands the perspective.)
Indeed. But kids still need to be educated. Although TBH I think this reluctance to close schools is more about not being seen to be 'falling behind' in the global sense than it is about the children themselves. Home schooling I guess may be an option for some, but all you have to do is browse Facebook for half an hour to see how bad of an idea that could turn into.
I can think of a Lord of the Flies situation from all this. Basically, children survive but all the adults are killed off, so the children have to start some sort of civilisation. Fantasy I know, but an interesting parallek
its a real mess where I live ---- the politicans haven't thought this through enough and are making knee jerk reactions.
