Impact of High Levels of Covid-19 on the Health System: Discussion
Dr. Ronan Glynn:
Our understanding is that the number of pupils and staff encompassed by that would represent a very small proportion of the 1.1 million students and staff in total who would go back in a full reopening. From our perspective, would 3%, 4% or 5% of that full cohort going back have a significant impact on the very high levels of community transmission that we are seeing at present? No, it would not. That would not have a significant impact on mobility at community level.
