Why would there be testing in schools, at least at primary level, when children are not supposed to spread the Certificate Of Vaccine 19 virus? No one will be be testing my children or vaccinating them. I'm not the only one thinking this, there are many of us just in the Algarve. This is not about a virus.Please try and break the mind control and think clearly about this my fellow human beings
