Teachers need to be vaccinated before schools open yet there’s not been any mention of that. To me that’s basic common sense.

I can see the same thing happening as last year. Everything opens back up and rates will sky rocket again.

If every adult is to be offered a vaccine by the end of July then common sense would tell you to keep things closed or extremely limited until then.

I dont know where you are getting your information from ,I am a teachers assistant and I got my jab last Friday,so they ARE getting them

This virus is on going and will never go away,we need to start living again, it will be like the flu,it will kill people but injections can lower the risk and help us live with it.

Tell people who are now suffering life changing long covid it's just going to be a flu.

There's NO vaccination that's going to stop people getting it or transmitting it yet.
Young or old.

Some suffer horribly from it.
Now a growing number, which even your government admits now, are left with devastating limiting and even serious conditions from covid.

Like the flu you say, beyond belief.

Annie, have all the other school staff had it too.

Some of my family who are concerned at their children returning to school, have told me, they know other staff at their schools haven't had the vaccines.

I'm not sure about the Teaching Assistants. I would like to think so.

...none of the school staff that I know have had theirs yet...well, not for being school staff anyway..a few have had it already for other vulnerabilities etc...it’s still a ‘regular testing’ thing until they’re vaccine groups are being vaccinated...

Long covid is nothing like flu Kazanne.
Plus it won't be halted by vaccines either.
Not the present vaccines anyhow.

So for me, risks remain too fragile in my view.

In my view opening schools is going to have more People out again, those collecting and taking them to school.

Groups of older children all out in the community again.

The vaccinations don't even stop young or old getting or transmitting it.
So for me, you'll never agree, I couldn't see all schools returning on March 8th as nothing else than playing dangerously with this virus, still at this time.

On that I'd like to know so.
There's another issue.

I haven't children myself, I do dread another unnecessary increase in infections again.
I still can't see any sense at this time, in putting schools back for 3 weeks then having the Easter break.

Until more like all is known not thought.
Then I prefer to tread cautiously across the board.

The data is promising in the short term, the data we get told that is.
It's not the longer picture confirmed yet however.

I sincerely doubt it. Joey is a very level headed person and deals in facts.

Well as you know Douglas I don't take any notice gossip rags ,twitter or tbh some of the media ,actions and word of mouth does it for me. All I know is I have had the jab and I work in a school.

....eeek, when you’re mocked by Sir David, that really is something and time that you might have to look closely at yourself ....it might be a jokey thing but it also reveals his strength of feeling for the Boris species, I think...

So it's a mock up ,not actually what Sir David Attenborough thinks of Boris ,just someone who doesn't like him very cleverly done though ,I guess some people will think it's real.

...I’m obviously one of those ...I guess some people, Kaz... because when Arista says it’s David Attenborough then I believe it’s David Attenborough because Arista is the oracle of accuracy, as we know...

Who mentioned anything about Joey? He wasn’t to do with the post at all?

Get out of my swamp (get off my grill), I didn’t say Joey was not a level headed person we just have different opinions

yep all the staff at the school I used to work with have got them, some going back a few weeks but most in half term

and that is everyone, including management and admin staff

if fact they rolled out a limited supply in late January and some of the management helped themselves before the staff who are actually in classrooms with the children, and these children are special needs so do not know how to socially distance
