A mum who thinks coronavirus is a hoax sent her child to school when they should have been self-isolating at home, a council leader says.
The conspiracy theorist kept flouting the rules and was putting lives at risk, said Cllr Rob Jones, leader of Neath Port Talbot Council in South Wales.
In another incident, a schoolgirl refused to wear a face mask because she thought it would spoil her make-up, Cllr Jones told WalesOnline.
The Labour councillor has hit out at Covid-19 deniers, rule breakers and young people who aren't taking the virus seriously, as the UK battles a second wave of the disease, which has claimed more than 71,000 lives based on death certificates mentioning the novel coronavirus.
