[QUOTE="Max68, post: 2279297, member: 521172"] I totally agree with you and it's not just because I work in a school! I know I've said it before but I cannot for the life of me fathom why in one breath the government declare you need to social distance in an outside bar or get annoyed about people on a beach and in the next breath they are going to scrap social distance measures at a school. I keep hearing that children transmit less but I haven't seen any evidence and even if that's the case "less" just means less, it doesn't mean that they cannot transmit the thing. Even if kids didn't staff obviously can and do. In fact an asymptomatic child who can spread the virus "less" is probably more likely to infect a group than a symptomatic adult who is coughing and spluttering. At least you can "see" the enemy when the signs are there. We had a case within a week of reopening back at the start of June and went back to a basic opening for two weeks. We open fully again tomorrow with me doing the usual online stuff,. I await with interest how they will fare for the remaining three weeks of term. Thank you for he visor ideas. I was talking to friends about masks and visors the other day and we all agreed visors were probably better. After all we have all done it I am sure when talking to someone that on occasion we accidentally spit a bit in someone's face and visors cover the eyes whereas masks don't. [/QUOTE]
