Missus is absolutely fuming at the story on the BBC this morning (here:
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/health-52180783 ). Professor Viner, it seems, hasn’t visited a school since he passed his A levels, if he thinks social distancing can be enforced with even half the kids in attendance or by “banning playtimes”. Even I know that banning playtime just makes the kids harder to control as the day progresses.
It’s a classic example of research by scientists who are great with statistics but don’t have much clue how humans (and especially children) actually behave.

Pretty much all of those scenarios are answered in a black and white manneer when the answers to most of those questions are a grey cloud.

To be fair, an essay on the relative merits of deontology and consequentialism as ethical schemes would be a bit pointless in your Soaraway Sun.
