Rejected petition Do NOT close schools/university over Coronavirus unless absolutely necessary.
To consider the intense impact of stopping education for young people unnecessarily and to reconsider not closing anything unless absolutely necessary.
More details
The media have blown Coronavirus completely out of proportion and the population have lapped it up as they thrive on something to worry and gossip about.
These kind of precautions were never put in place for other illnesses which were much more lethal.
By turning the world up side down is completely unnecessary and it is getting out of control. The best thing we can do is maintain normality.
