Think you're being slightly harsh. We know nothing about their children, their ages, any needs issues they might have, their diets etc. The government shows no compassion in that respect. They'd cart of groups of kids with profound ASD if that was the box needing ticked. You're also being a bit disingenuous RE the 14 day thing. Didn't that literally change yesterday? HK have done nothing to suggest they won't ramp it right back up to 21 when they secure capacity.
I'm not saying I support the school closures, I don't. But I emphasize with parents who fear quarantine for their children. One of mine particular would not deal well with it at all and I'd fear for their mental health.

Nice what? I like it here. Take my mind off stress. You clearly have no idea what parents have to deal with when they have kids at home when they should have been at school.Original Post Deleted

Well now 100% of primary and kindy kids mental health is going to be screwed up by no school and remote learning. The increase in depression, anxiety, and child abuse during school closures are a much higher number than those who’ve been sent to PB also.
The change to 14 days was inevitable because PB is full, in fact I feel more confident keeping schools open by the day because if omicron rages we’ll have home quarantine soon enough.
I feel the same but can do math and recognize the chance of being a close contact is very low. There have been 49,000 people quarantined for close contact out of 7 million.

this compares well with the statistic of those sent to PB after the party even if many of them were released
Either way the sentiment of wishing to avoid a 21 or now 14 day stint remains, albeit it may not necessarily be PB a close contact is sent to. Why don’t they take the mothballs off the Sai Kung one. 2 years now a massive park has been shut because of a ghost facility.
4 days was enough.14 in PB. I would go bat shit and I’m made of strong stuff from a QT viewpoint
