At least they have their garden rooms and bars to sit in while they are “sick” This is it. Nearly all teachers are double jabbed. Most students are not jabbed at all. Any teacher contracting Covid will get a very mild dose. Probably asymptotic. They test positive and are sent home. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is Public Health keeping such records? Any records, in fact? I doubt that many as the ones I know all have symptoms. Generally they have found out using LFTs having noticed a symptom or regularly testing having been a close contact. Symptoms vary but none that I know are truly asymptomatic. At very best cold like symptoms. If you test positive on LFT there is no requirement to report or get a PCR so I expect many do not. PCR is not pleasant so the only real reason I can see for getting if you test positive on LFT is if you feel that it is a false positive. Probably unlikely compared to false negatives.

I'm not a teacher but I am a person who is double-jabbed and has recently had covid. There is absolutely no way that I would've been able to work from home or sit in the sunshine while suffering with symptoms. It really did knock me for six and I would encourage anyone who's not had covid (whether vaccinated or not) to take whatever precautions possible to avoid the illness. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The rules were changed a little while back. It is now purely recommended. If you test +ve on an LFT and then have a +ve PCR day 0 of your 10 day isolation is the day you tested +ve on the LFT. No further testing. If you only have an LFT I believe you are meant to isolate for 10 days but as you don't have to report you will not get an isolation notice. I have not found if this the 10 days isolation after +ve LFT is the law. If test -ve on PCR then no need to isolate. Logical position is if testing +ve with LFT then isolate and if start feeling better and have -LFT then go for PCR as -ve PCR gets you out of isolation and if still +ve via a PCR you 10 days are still from when you first tested +ve via LFT.

Teachers jabbed? Around 90% of all adults are double jabbed. Unless teachers took a stand against it, that would include them Kids not double jabbed? The plan at the moment is to single jab the under 16s. Teachers mild case? Absolutely. That is what the jabs do. Most Asymptomatic? Absolutely. That's what the jabs do. You're amazing. I know.

Absolutely. That is what the jabs do. Most Asymptomatic? Absolutely. That's what the jabs do. You're amazing. I know. The vaccination of the kids seems to be very slow. By the time most get jabbed they will have had Covid Teachers may have mild cases from being double jabbed but the present Covid rules require you to isolate for 10 days if you test +ve no matter how you feel Your logic seems a bit out. Which is is that "what the jabs do"? Make you Asymptomatic or have a mild case or does the vaccine have a different effect on teachers?

They have tested positive for Covid 19. That does not mean they are in ICU. Most are probably sat out in the lovely October sun right now. Where is your information. 'Most', ' not neessarily' and 'probably' are wild speculations of a bitter and ill informed person. You don't even realise what you are writing. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
