    Roadmap out of Lockdown - Feb 22nd

    It's not queue jumping if the risk of their job is so great that they need a vaccine (c.f. NHS and care staff). If they do NOT need a vaccine then open the schools, Simple. 10 million kids falling behind every day, the kids who might need to unlock the genetic sequence for the next vaccine.

    Roadmap out of Lockdown - Feb 22nd

    I'm not sure why "shut schools" is better than "vaccinate teachers". The latter would be a better outcome IMO. One of the directors of an Academy group was on Radio 4 this morning with a suggestion that teachers should get a 20 year "age premium" so that a 40 year old teacher is vaccinated as a...

    Roadmap out of Lockdown - Feb 22nd

    I fear we're going down a rabbit hole but if you're running a golf club do you really want all the expense of maintaining the holes, cleaning all the equipment and keeping a strict appointment-only tee time system going without your bar revenue? Especially in cold, wet and windy March? And, from...

    Half? Living in a flat stops you walking, jogging or cycling outside, doing a Joe Wickes workout or going to the beach for a swim? Really?

    Roadmap out of Lockdown - Feb 22nd

    And how are people unable to go for a run, cycle or walk, use gym equipment at home, do a Joe Wicks workout, do keepy ups in their back garden or local park by themself or with a friend who keeps their distance or, where we live, do a coldwater swim or watersport as I still see many doing on...

    Roadmap out of Lockdown - Feb 22nd

    Yes, was going to make this point in relation to worries about R and mutation. Lockdowns were only ever to save lives (not *all* lives, which is impossible) and protect the NHS. Hospitalization should be the canary in the mine - yes it will be about a two week lag but it's perfectly feasible...

    Roadmap out of Lockdown - Feb 22nd

    I don't see data supporting either of your arguments. Could you provide it? The data I know about suggests hospitalisations down by half in exactly a month, cases and deaths dropping by nearly 25% a week and millions and millions of the most vulnerable vaccinated. Can you tell me what change...

    Roadmap out of Lockdown - Feb 22nd

    There are rumours it'll be year group based. Those preparing for key exams next year and those in early years where you can stay behind all the way through if you start behind, certainly need to go back asap. For the other years it makes sense, kids and teachers wise, to wait until after...

    Roadmap out of Lockdown - Feb 22nd

    I appreciate how much you've been through. Anyone who has followed your posts must have. And I have no desire to upset you with this, but I suspect I might. Nevertheless, I feel it needs to be said on this thread. I've spent the vast majority of my working life working with specialist tools for...
