Schools are a high risk settings?

High risk of selfish behaviour by teachers.
High risk of abuse of children.
High risk of wild hysteria.

But high risk of covid illness? Not by any empirical measure.

And this is why institutions have lost all trust from the (thinking) public.

They are creating a parallel universe in which reality is some bizarre construct of theirs, backed up by their strange predictions and surreal interpretations of data and all of it insulated from criticism and facts by a protective shield of crony media and rampant censorship.

What percentage of schoolchildren aged 12 and up have been jabbed this week? Five days behind us now. How many have died this week? I haven’t heard of a single one.

I wonder which section of the workforce will be next to be deemed “high risk?”

Civil servants working from home?

It takes a special kind of stupid to voluntarily go for a ‘booster’.
