Retweet if the lack of clarity and communication from the government regarding mocks, orals, projects and the actual leaving cert itself has negatively impacted your mental health

honestly i’m so conflicted about going back to school on monday like i hate online school with a passion and this lockdown has by far been worse than the others in terms of my mental health but going back to school is so scary rn even if it’s just sixth years #schoolsreopening
Taoiseach: "Here's what the next six weeks will look like. Leo Varadkar will be along later to muddy the waters and enrage you further, just so he gets on the telly too." #livingwithcovid#level5
If the UK have nights out by June I say we invade. The first Irish empire. We won't do anything evil or war crimey, just take over all the bars and clubs. More blacks, more Irish and lots of dogs this time around.
Schools reopening chaos tonight. @DonnellyStephen tells @ClaireByrneLive it's NOT a done deal they'll open up. The B117 variant and a very high case rate in the community means reopening schools is dangerous. Blaming the teacher unions tonight is disgraceful. Schools are not safe
@newschambers On Feb 11th few days before reopening was mentioned the projections were 200-400 daily cases by end Feb.
We're nowhere near and yet plan going ahead.
Surely it should be data driven not date driven!
If we started today, and did Zero Covid right, we could be open by early summer, says Independent Scientific Advocacy Group (ISAG). “It now seems that there will be further lockdowns stretching into the summer and beyond. Each will further damage jobs, businesses, and lives.
How in God’s name the government can even contemplate reopening schools, with cases touching 1,000 most days and the Brazilian variant here now, is beyond comprehension.
We didn’t open in march last year when cases were lower then this even in the peak but can open now with two new more transmissible strains with young children who can’t social distance but we can’t see our family. What is going? Childcare educators teachers we need to stand up!
Still think it’s not fair to ask people to stay in a hotel for 14 days when they’ve come from a country with a new variant of COVID19, @LeoVaradkar?
The government, once again, are solely to blame for allowing a new variant into the country and whatever consequences that brings
Govt tonight will order phased reopening of schools from Mar 1. CDC in America recommends schools in places where infection rates are more than 50 in 100,000 should stay shut because they drive infection. Nowhere in Ireland is below 122 per 100,000. This is a dangerous experiment
if we’re sticking to the current measures for longer because it’s not safe to move about the community. it’s not safe to send way around 100k children, teenagers, teachers, cleaning staff etc. back into the community to move around. do better government.
