I would guess that it's an emergency "back-stop" when ordinary measures have failed and bodies are piling up in the streets .....

I have a feeling we'll all have to get vaccinated whether we like it or not.
No way am I having an un-licensed anything that hasn't been tested properly, they'll have to knock me out first!
Let the MP's and their families have it first!

I feel the same as you about this Tess.

Anyway, they have been vaccinating against Flu for enough years, but it hasn't stopped that, has it!

Coronavirus outbreaks at 62 UK schools leaves hundreds of students in isolation

https://www.mirror.co.uk/news/uk-new...hools-22637833

There have been confirmed coronavirus cases at 62 schools in the UK since pupils returned last week.

Many schools have been forced to shut and many more to tell classes of pupils to isolate following outbreaks.

In what may be a sign of things to come for the rest of the country, Scotland has been the worst affected.

Pupils returned to the classroom several weeks earlier in Scotland than in Wales, Northern Ireland and England.
So sad for the children who have just returned to a "normality" .....

Coronavirus: Young people breaking rules risk ‘second wave’

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/newsbeat-54056771

The UK could see a second spike in coronavirus cases if young people don't follow social distancing rules, the health secretary says.

A third of all cases in England last week were people aged between 20 and 29.
"The numbers have been have been going up. And we've seen in other countries where this leads, and it is not a good place," Matt Hancock says. Students starting university this month is a "concern", he adds.

Hertsmere infection rise 'due to teenage house parties'

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-englan...herts-54057523
Large house parties attended by 16 to 19-year-olds were to blame for one of the biggest rises in coronavirus cases in England, a council said. Hertsmere in Hertfordshire had the third highest rate of infection for any area outside the North West. The borough council warned schools may close if residents do not "get a grip".

Hertsmere, which has a population of just under 105,000, recorded 60 positive cases of Covid-19 in the seven days up to 4 September. This gave the area, which includes Radlett, Bushey, Elstree and Borehamwood, 57.2 cases per 100,000 of the population. Only Birmingham, Bradford and some areas of the North West had a higher per 100,000 infection rate.

Tim Hutchings, the councillor responsible for public health at the council, said the rise in cases in Hertsmere was "significant". He said the outbreak was among a "group of young people in a number of large social gatherings in private homes in the last week of August".
At the start of the pandemic in England, the most "at risk" were the old in care homes and now the most "at risk" are the young in private homes .....

IF this were the case, why hasn't the BBC News jumped all over it and made a bluddy big splurge of it?

Dunno ..... but the Guardian has the latest:

Coronavirus: dozens of schools in England and Wales report outbreaks

https://www.theguardian.com/world/20...or-coronavirus

Dozens of schools across England and Wales have reported coronavirus outbreaks, prompting some to shut their doors while others have sent staff and pupils home to self-isolate.

A week after children began returning to classrooms for the first time since lockdown in March, a number of schools across parts of the UK have been battling outbreaks.

In Liverpool, an estimated 200 pupils and 21 staff are self-isolating following positive cases at five schools in the city. In Suffolk, five teachers tested positive for coronavirus, leading the school to close, and in the Midlands a school that was visited by the prime minister less than two weeks ago has had one teacher test positive.

In areas including Bradford, Leeds, Lancashire, Manchester, Nottingham and Leicester, handfuls of pupils and staff who tested positive for the virus have led to schools asking some pupils to self-isolate.
