That's bullshit (on their part) , but it makes for the convenience of trying to reassure NHS staff and the wider general public that those working within aren't at an greater risk.

Funnily, enough, just like the narrative they are trying to get out on teachers and kids.

NHS are clearly at the front line and carry huge risk to anyone else based simply on viral loads.


It was less than three months ago they said it was safe for kids to be in school, then they said it wasn't, and now they say it is.

Nothing has changed in terms of the virus still being in circulation.

Just as likely to catch it yes,
In contact with more people and people who have the virus makes them infinitely more likely to get it and get it bad
They are heroes no doubt

I expect the R in the midlands to remain around 1 for a couple more weeks before it falls. We are seeing the effect of a behaviour change in the deaths now and I have a feeling It may be due to Ramadan but of course I would get slaughtered if I said that in public! .......oh

Yes it could be the Muslims. Or it could the entire nation collectively losing its minds during the VE celebrations last weekend.

Nailed it
Whatever is proposed is open to pick holes in
We don’t live in an ideal world normally let alone in these times
Ultimately it will be a personal choice if you want to send kids back to school
I’m torn and I change my mind hourly

Where there is doubt, there is no doubt.
 
As has been said before Liverpool think it’s safe for men’s football to resume, but not women’s and it not safe for five year olds to go to school. In many ways it doesn’t matter what the government says, there will always be a percentage of the country will either refuse or ignore. Thankfully I don’t have kids of school age any longer but I do have ones that work and who will shortly be returning to offices

I don't even know why anyone would split hairs.

Cabbies and labourers haven't even been working these last two months, so the ONS stats need comparables made to professions which will be back on a daily basis for the same period.

I suspect the NHS and care workers will still be far out in front in terms of exposure risk!!

Viral loads are the relevant part of the equation.

It's crass from the ONS to state our NHS workers aren't at more risk than the majority of professions.

Teachers would be right next to them in terms of daily prolonged exposure within the context of their working conditions.
