Petition Action

Close all schools longer prevent spread of second strand of COVID-19

Petition Details

Close all schools from now (January 1st) until the COVID spread has calmed as children and young people are said to be the spreaders so there for they can all learn virtually

Additional Information

Children and young people are said to be the spreaders and most have to get on public transport to get to school which means coming into contact with several other people that aren’t part of their bubble so this gives a high chance of spreading. A lot of young people also live with shielders so it will be better for them to not go in to school as it’s a high risk
