    Me too - no disrespect to Dom but I don’t think he’s got a personal connection to this and I think it allows him to detach from reality somewhat. I’ve got a 11 year old with a compromised immune system that I am trying to protect. She is getting fractious, upset and confused because her friends...

    It has declined significantly from the highs of April no doubt... but it has been stuck between 1000 - 2000 for quite a while. Has it even been below 1000 yet on a single day? (Bearing in mind these are only CONFIRMED cases)

    Hancock says the ‘infection rate is RAPIDLY declining’ - I’ll assume he doesn’t actually understand what that word means.

    Are we talking about a second spike in the first wave at this point rather than a second wave? All of those grouping we’ve had have been outside in generally good weather - outside the virus has a reduced transmission rate. The test will be when we start to have en-masse gatherings that are...

    Other than Teams or some subject specific website (we use something called Hegarty Maths) then it’s very difficult. Any student that is off-line it’s near on impossible to track. Some schools and subjects have gone for teaching new content - we went for consolidation of existing knowledge...
