That was the narrative, but at the time that was being pushed I had a look at the ONS data and it turned out less than 1 in 6 of our population goes to a school but 1 in 4 of people infected during that week had been in a school that week. So the narrative didn't fit what was actually happening. 'Think the government made their decision to have schools open regardless of the risk in schools and to support that they pushed the narrative that schools are not above average venues for spreading the virus.Kids definitely do spread it. But schools were never a driver of infection, they just reflected high community prevalence. Shutting schools is the biggest mistake in the whole Covid response.
