My understanding is that the young are far less likely to pass it on to others. Plenty of scientific research indicates that no adult has been infected by a child. The report this morning of a UK government scientist saying that teachers are far more likely to get the virus in the staff room than in a classroom of 30 children.
In the meantime, we will have no NHS if people insist on not working. The NUT must think money growns on trees.
Lockdown was always there to spread the virus out over time, not stop it. We have done that; time to reopen the economy, reopen schools and yes, more people will get the virus, but you won't have the peak as the dead in the main have been elderly catching it in close proximity to other elderly people. If the elderly isolate the yound can rebuild the economy.
It is not rocket science, merely logic. Something most scientists forgot in the desire to 'do something'.
