I’m really uncomfortable with Dr Richatdson words that it is inevitable that with the kids going back to school that the numbers will jump.

One could also say, it is inevitable that people including children could die.

It is all about the economy, people’s lives are collateral damage. I’m glad I dont have youngsters.
