Son-1 has had 2 of these 10 days apart so reasonably hopeful that he is clear. Unless he catches it on the train home.
Daughter-1 has fewer than half her classmates in currently and the neighbouring school has just closed for physical lessons due to an outbreak.
Not sure we're quite in the clear yet.

Is the idea that in a situation where keeping students at Uni was not appropriate/possible (politically, socially etc) catching 50% of positives does help, and by doing this early possibly prevents a week or two of transmission which would increase cases several fold prior to returns home?
