    How is this more relevant than me asking why a child could be denied a covid test when the childs school requested it?
    Obviously no one knows if he fitted the criteria if children can have different symptoms than adults. 
    Its worrying me when genuine threads like that gets reported. What kind of person does that? I have genuine concerns for my daughter who is in the childs class. So why report it? It beggars belief. 

    Can't you just let it go? This has been mentioned over a few different threads and your question was answered.

    And 43 hours later the OP hasn't come back....does anyone think they may have been an employee asked to return?
    Could well have been. Let us hope they've realised the error of their ways and have now told their employer that they're happy to return to do whatever hours the business requires.

    There are lots of one post users at the moment, many of them because they seem to be able to either use the search function, or read the last few posts (see the huge number of duplicate threads where people ask about holiday, 80% pay on furlough etc.).

    They may have just posted their question, read the responses and hopefully sacked the person who was refusing to work.

    Yep, this board is very poorly moderated. 

    What should have happened months ago was an FAQ of all previous threads so that people can read that before posting a question. 

    I would guesstimate at least 80-90% of the threads made each day have now already been covered by previous threads.

    I think they attempt to allow free speech and for things to flow, which does largely work, even if it does mean duplicate threads.

    Those already exist in the main MSE guides, the problem is people do not want to read, many are inherently lazy or they see themselves as unique so they want an answer specific to them.

    I agree, possibly even higher.

    The majority of people most likely wouldn't read it.
