A primary teacher friend has a kid in class today with known Covid (tested positive earlier in the week). Was off for a few days, parents sent the child back today, for the last day of term.
Child still clearly has Covid, coughing and sneezing. What happened next is🤬/1

The principal intervened, asking the child 'do you feel well enough for school today?' Child nods.
Principal sends the child back to class. /2
Refusal to follow even the laughably pissweak 'exhibiting symptoms' NSW Health guidance.
I've advised the teacher to lodge a formal WHS complaint. /end
