Vaccines and testing are like voting. Don’t complain if you don’t take part.

However, whenever they have gone back at our kids school after a break such as after Easter and after the summer holidays and after Christmas, they close the school for 3 days and invite kids in for testing. Why can't kids just test at home on the sunday before school resumes after each holiday period if this has been deemed perfectly fine since April? We don't test our child though. I think your last sentence answers your own question....How so?

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/health-60000391More and more people dying with covid as opposed to of it.
Another more virulent variant may develop, vaccinations across the world will reduce the chances of this occurring.
Quote from: SydneyRover on January 15, 2022, 09:32:18 amAnother more virulent variant may develop, vaccinations across the world will reduce the chances of this occurring.All the indications thus far suggest that variants are becoming more transmissible but less virulent (dangerous), and this is with many countries not having had much vaccine coverage as it is. South Africa did good with Omicron and most of their population aren't jabbed. There is something called natural immunity which most people will have and which will help reduce variants just like vaccines will.
82k cases and 287 deaths today..
So a positive lateral flow followed by a positive PCR test counted double I guess. Also would all the positive hospital tests have been tested a few times over consecutive days
Where's Kirk gone anyway? Nudga a bit quiet of late too. Ldr also. I feel a bit left out in the cold on here.
It was not intended as ignorant. She shares your views in the topic of covid and vaccines. You could share ideas. Discuss. Solidarity and all that .
With the news today that Morrisons have joined IKEA, Ocado and Next in cutting sick pay for those that are unvax and have to isolate, it got me thinking. Who is going to declare coming into contact with anyone with covid working for these companies knowing that they are going to be financially penalised.? Surely this stance is going to encourage further non compliance and the risk that this entails.
