@ronan_glynn Doing all we can should include protecting primary school children

If we really wanted to do all we can, we'd have masks & HEPA in every classroom, to reduce risk of transmission by 90% (per CDC).

An open window & hand gel in full primary classrooms is not doing all we can.

As you have all been doing such excellent detective work, here’s another mysterious miscellaneous antiquarian drawing for you. @DH_Age suggested this one, we think we know where it is but would like to hear what you think 🤔 #AntiquarianMystery
