Trouble at T' Blackboard

 A bunch of schoolteachers pretending to be scientists are having a spat over Pom-flu and how to deal with it.

Entertaining, often funny stuff, worth following.

 The letter to the editor in the NZ Journal of Primary Health Care from academics of several top universities claims New Zealand is "one of few countries chasing elimination of Covid-19" and that it is "stamping out livelihoods and lives".

One quote got me though: "There is no mention of the adverse health effects of the virus, direct and indirect mortality impacts, nor the impact on healthcare services and staff," Town says of the letter.

 Town is correct. There is none - because these things are not relevant to the argument.
