• Schools were closed for most of that time, so I’m not sure it means much other than teachers were more able to stay at home than many other professions.

    There’s also a big difference in a teacher’s ability to social distance and follow protocols depending on the age group they teach. As @Acliff points out, it’s impossible in nursery and early years.

  • Yep true but that in itself shows they have been somewhat protected vs other groups. I'm not sure if there has been any analysis to account for this time from home?
    I think risk should be considered from an outcome perspective. The problem immediately comes once you start prioritising, is being able to substantiate that position.
