I think they need to close all universities and schools.
They can study online.

How many deaths have happened of others loved ones since he was advised to do a circuit breaker on 21st September.

Not in my book anyway.

this is just plain wrong joey. The purpose of a lockdown is to reduce the infection rate to stop the NHS being overwhelmed. The NHS is not yet close to being overwhelmed yet, but it will if the rate keeps on rising.

What's the point of another lockdown if they're keeping schools and universities open?

No it's not.
Not that I expected any different response from you if you have one.

Lives could and should have been saved .the scientific advice stated in September WITHOUT a national circuit breaker or lockdown.
More LIVES would be lost.

That's not wrong at all.

Yes, it saves the NHS places too.
Because more in hospital in intensive care, are likely to die.

This done sooner would have saved some of those lives lost.
Actually it's you whose more wrong with respect.
