Local Mum Blasts “Pathetic” School Closure Over “Vomiting Virus 2026” – Says Kids Need “Common Sense Germs”
So the local primary is shut down again because of this so-called "vomiting virus 2026" sweeping through town, and I’m supposed to feel sorry for the overworked parents crying on Nextdoor? Get a grip. My gran used to say a bit of dirt builds an immune system. Now little Timmy misses his SATs because someone projectile-vomited in the hallway? It’s winter. Kids puke. That’s what they do. But no, we’ve got to cancel playdates, torch the entire playground, and make the NHS hotline melt down over a 24-hour bug that’s been around since the dinosaurs. This "vomiting virus 2026" panic is pure clickbait for scaredy-cats. Bring back raw milk and climbing trees, I say. Oh, and if you’re one of those parents scrubbing your doors with bleach every five minutes, maybe don’t send your kid to school with a snotty nose next time. Common sense.
