Uni Sydney dentistry students are still in some classes. Not everybody is smiling

The university has closed its student clinics but simulations are still on. These are pracs using plastic teeth. According to the university they are, “continuing to run to fill the void in clinical training due to the current COVID-19 crisis and to prevent disruption in training the future dental workforce. The simulation clinics operate under special assurance for infection control.”

Good-o, but some students travelling to class on public transport wonder whether the risk is worth it.  “We, should be considered as a non-essential service at a time like this. We should be staying home,” one says.
