But can @patel4witham bring herself to apologise tonight for the PPE debacle?
No, it seems she can’t.

Amazing study, supporting droplet (rather than aerosol) as key means of transmission. One asymptomatic person infected 10 (out of 91) at restaurant—but *only* if they were in direct line of air pushed by the A/C. (Aerosol would have infected others, too). https://t.co/j8VXjnWtlN pic.twitter.com/w8yNENCT6M

Internal debate on when schools will reopen…
— Mrs Jagger (@JaggersMaths) April 19, 2020
1. They won’t reopen until September, given the support the government has put in place.
2. Gut instinct says they will open schools after half term, because economy > human life.
3. You have no control so just live in the now.
If any government deserves criticism, it’s China’s. It lied & covered up the spread of the virus, arrested doctors who spoke out..oh, & also keeps MILLIONS of Uighurs in concentration camps!
