What’s more tedious? People claiming schools do not cause heavy transmission, or people going on, and on, and on about no one acknowledging they do?

Thank christ you've changed the subject to reduce the tedium

Both are tedious tbf.

But being tedious on a football forum is one thing, being in denial whilst leading a country-wide response is another.

The idiots are the ones happy to cancel everything that makes life enjoyable because of some misplaced belief that it makes a difference.

Go and enjoy your break.

Post lots of pictures on facebook too, to ensure added seethe.

The seethe started the minute I put the first couple of photos. Apparently we shouldn't be here as east lothian is in tier 3. Aye, from fucking Monday...

A gentle reminder that roughly 40% of acute cases in England each week can be traced back to education settings, of which ~75% are from schools.

Now schools have closed in Scotland for a bit, and the rise in cases has slowed considerably.

I think it would be slightly unwise to point blank dismiss the possibility of a correlation at the current time.

No idea where you get those numbers from, the second table doesn't appear anywhere on the link he gave. Here's the data for the first table which appears above it on the website which says 22%, which really isn't roughly 40%. I've absolutely no idea where your figure of 70% of that came from.

That Spanish El Pais article that is doing the rounds has an interesting set of numbers: Spanish authorities have been recorded 31% of outbreaks from meeting up indoors and 6% from Schools.

Of course, the article doesn't make clear if it means 31% of cases, clusters or what...
