Close Schools And Colleges Due To High Rise Of Covid-19 Cases
Me and Thousands of other people want schools and colleges to close because there is a high rise of covid-19 cases. Announcing a lockdown should mean that everything closes such as schools and colleges. Schools and colleges should close as we sit next to each other long enough for covid to transmit.
I would like the government to do it because its the safest option. This is the safest option because when they go home they maybe with family that are at higher risk. Also you may have covid-19 and not show any symptoms which means you can infect people on the way to school in school and on the way back home. and also at home. Each school has hundreds of pupils so this means it can be easily spread and this results in higher cases and more people at risk.
