The letter was written by Mike Sandys, director of public health at Leicestershire County Council, and Jane Moore, director of children and family services."The start of term will undoubtedly cause infection to spread again but schools are doing everything they can to keep their doors open."It added: "Sadly, the majority of hospital intensive care beds are being taken by Covid patients.
