That's the plan yes, but unfortunately some schools have not been sent enough to deliver this.

Again, some schools are running this better than others.

Different schools are running things differently. I am glad you used the tests, but they were strictly speaking optional. Lateral flow tests have a very high false negative rate, particularly when not administered by a trained professional.

I am not. This is first hand information for me. Nothing I have said contradicts your link either.

Depends if the lock-downs are at your doorstep or at the border. The UK had a few opportunities to pursue a zero covid strategy but squandered them all.

The mass testing story is not what you think it is. The tests are optional, self administered, self reported, only available to staff (not students) in many cases and have a 50% false negative rate.

They have been doing this in London. I think it makes a big difference! It also prevents people from parking in the bike lane.

Painted bike lanes do not feel safe enough to most potential cyclists so they don't lead to much modal shift.

We can't all drive though. There is not physically enough space in an urban environment. If you don't provide good alternatives - cycling is one, trains and buses are also key - then everyone will be stuck in traffic.

I listened to your source, but I'm afraid it wasn't very convincing. The evidence they presented was an ambulance driver who had to go around a modal filter via side-streets to get to a patient who later died. We do not know if th

True, but adults need around 30 mins exercise per day anyway so we can take the carbon budget from that.

It is very flat, but it's also quite wet and VERY windy. The Netherlands would not be the best place to cycle if it weren't for the infrastructure that they chose to build.

You are not alone. Transport for London found safety concerns as the biggest reason people do not cycle in London. Interestingly, many people who do cycle also considered it too dangerous. For what it's worth, your risk from diseases o

Build a portfolio whose value is in some way connected to their share price. Buy shares, hold them, sell later would be one example.

I don't approve of tax loopholes that large corporates abuse to pay an effective lower rate. However, as an individual we can't change this. My (extremely cynical) advice is to hitch your wagon to theirs. Get some market exposure

> For example, I believe the US government should offer people the cost to travel to any other country once. Funny idea. An anarchist (left or right) would ask: why should I move? Why does the US government get priority here?
