Couple of things Nicole if I may.
Everywhere on the planet cases will be brought in from somewhere else. Restaurant outbreaks will be because someone has brought it in,. Hotels, Universities, schools, homes, the infection will be brought in from somewhere else and then it can spread. Navy ships are the prime example. You have a fully negative crew for say six months and then new crew joins or swaps. Because the new crew will have been elsewhere they have the potential to bring it onto the ship. People will scream, but it didn't originate on the ship! No, but now it's there it has the potential to spread!
Point number two. I'm sorry but you cannot compare shop workers with those who work in schools. Don't get me wrong they have been fantastic with the continuing service they have provided through the whole pandemic and I am not dismissing their risk at all. But,,,,, Shop workers may have to serve the great unwashed as you say but not in a small room for a minimum of 40 minutes at a time like teachers or support staff do each lesson. It just doesn't compare. You may be in Sainsbury for over an hour but you aren't next to a staff member for the whole time.
Kids will spread the virus. Surely there can be no denying this?
