The total number of reported cases since the start of term is 124 but the actual number is likely to be higher.
Less than two weeks since the start of freshers week...
Had an email from school last night having a rant because kids had been sent to school despite having persistent cough, temperature and anosmia. Beggars belief. Confirmed cases in years 8, 10 and 12 so far.
Child 1 is a freshers rep at uni - the freshers start arriving this weekend. At least he's living off-campus so slightly away from the petri dish, but given the noises coming out of the unis already back it's going to be bad.
Feel very sorry for this year's intake - bugger all socialising and having to do lectures online means being cooped up in your room when you should be going out and meeting people. Will be a really shit experience.
