Not covered in that much detail yet but they're compiling answers so there should be more detail pretty soon hopefully
Will those with recent negative tests still have to wear masks?
Masks for kids in corridors and social time spaces is sensible (apart from a designated eating area for example) in a class is going to be the difficult one. The kids can’t socially distance in a classroom and at the moment as a teacher the guidance is to stay away at the front and not circulate around. Maybe visors are the next steps so staff can go over and support kids?In a school these measures are close to unenforceable when a teacher isn’t around and even if they are behaviour will still be too casual. If you are going to let everybody back then drop the pretence of reducing transmission. What are we going to do, for the rest of time insist that a teacher can’t go around the classroom to help individuals? Make a waiter in a restaurant always put the food on a tray away from the table? We really risk losing all kind of rationality in day to day life because of this.

I am happier with the masks for both myself but also my daughter who is expected to return to school as normal next week after spending 5 months being shielded due to being high risk.

I'm all for punishing people who do this but this does sit right with me
Yeah, that's where things are uncomfortable. Also, going back to previously shielded parents, and grandparents.I am happier with the masks for both myself but also my daughter who is expected to return to school as normal next week after spending 5 months being shielded due to being high risk.
Can it kill humans, too?Product found in insect repellent could kill coronavirus, military study shows
The mosquito spray is not enough protection on its own and is being used as an added layer.news.sky.com

Any actions that reduce a potential risk for my child (and countless others) is a start for me - I know that this is going to be incredibly complicated and challenging for everyone. Their is still an absence of any kind of proper tracking setup in place, and basic measures like temperature checks aren’t even being made mandatory in schools so something to mitigate needs to there IMO.I have a fundamental problem with the whole thing I’m afraid.

Incidentally we have just been told by email this afternoon that masks are mandatory in our school for all communal areas for both staff and students, and that we are able to have visors for use in classroom so that students can still see our faces and mouths properly.
Ps and yes Williamson has got to go. It’s about time Johnson showed some leadership and got rid of some of the fuck ups (ministers such as Williamson and Hancock as well as senior management in civil service). Government and parts of the civil service (senior management, not front line) have been found sadly wanting through this shitstorm.
I don't think Boris will get rid of any of his crew, they are all yes men to him and toe his party line. All that is happening is that Cummings is getting his way by decimating the top of the civil service, these are people who have given their working lives to this country whatever party is in power and are now being made the scapegoats for all that has happened
Morning all. I’ve avoided the thread of misery for a while (even though I do like a majority of the posters...the thread is just depressing !). Interesting development in France, especially as they’ve seen cases increase recently.
France relaxes social distancing at events with under 5,000 people
Exceptions are made for certain areas designated as 'red-zones' of infectionwww.google.co.uk
Hopefully a sign that we will be edging back to some kind of normality. Yes, there has been increases in confirmed cases cases around here and Europe recently (some of which will be attributed to increased testing in high outbreak areas), however, hospital admissions and deaths remain low. Fingers crossed it stays that way.
As many having been saying for a while, shield those most at risk, continue to take precautions, especially if around those most at risk (masks in crowded areas, wash hands etc), but otherwise we need to try to get back to some normality. So many of the decisions aren’t being made based on conclusive scientific evidence but on scientific calculated guesswork, which is understandable in a pandemic of a totally new disease/virus, so I hope Frances decision is correct (I believe it will be)

If you did this though you'd have to get rid of pretty much the entire cabinet. Patel, Jenryck also would have to go. And once you start looking at how many of his appointments have been shite it points the finger at who appointed them and how good their judgement is.
Jenryck not going is a stain on this country and makes a mockery of any attempts be the Tories to claim they're a one nation party and we're all in it together.
The last word I heard on it from Ikea was this isn't going away- since then it's gone away
Side effect is you chase after moving string, and eat WhiskasAccording to a Canadian study there is a Cat antiviral that stops it in it's track's.
Not to mention the furballs .Side effect is you chase after moving string, and eat Whiskas

Nether figure bears has any real relationship with the other. Both just cases and deaths reported that day and the 28 day rule muddies things further.Heaven help us if this was a virus that actually caused symptoms in everyone it infected and had a death rate above 1%. Take yesterday, over 1500 new cases (which means in reality more in the community), but 12 deaths. Yet an asymptomatic gentleman is taken off a plane by folks from Resident Evil
Do you not think that is symptomatic of some people’s arrogance. He tested positive and shouldn’t have been there full stop.Yet an asymptomatic gentleman is taken off a plane by folks from Resident Evil

OK - I kind of get that bit fair enough, but equally he knew he’d had a test... maybe just double check you were fine before getting on the plane.... I guess it depends if he went for a test because he had symptoms, or if he was asked randomly to do a home kit or something.He got the text on the plane I believe

I wasn't disputing your point just indicating that until the figures being presented are rational then there will be no rationality.How about we consider the global total death toll and the total number of cases beyond those confirmed?

Also, it’s a bit naive to think they have ‘given their lives to this country‘....some top civil servants will be there for the cash etc, just like any other profession
