The return to school means we have to do everything we reasonably can to protect children, teachers, carers and their families from COVID-19 transmission. That means vaccination, ventilation and virus detection. 1/6 abc.net.au/news/2021-09-22/j…

I have no doubt that lockdown is having an impact on mental health, but instead of comparing it with having no lockdown, compare it to the mental health impact of mass deaths and burying family and friends.
That would be a realistic comparison.
