Apparently chief medical officer Chris Whitty is saying, at the same time, that children returning to school will increase the likelihood of people catching Covid-19… and that it won’t.
It depends which news source you use and whether you think the UK’s chief medical officer is likely to contradict himself in such a way.
What do you believe?
And, if you’re a parent…
What do you do?
Have YOU donated to my crowdfunding appeal, raising funds to fight false libel claims by TV celebrities who should know better? These court cases cost a lot of money so every penny will help ensure that wealth doesn’t beat justice.

I’m not (and never will be) a parent, but I am more inclined to believe Sky News on this. I don’t believe it is safe for schools to open as normal with no social distancing and no protection.
