He said track and trace was looking like a failure because people were not isolating when requested by the service. That isnt anyones fault but us. How can a system work if the sole purpose of it isnt being adhered to. The basic knowledge of C19 is that it's very contagious,can be removed from surfaces by washing and can be stopped by not spreading it. A lot of people have needed to earn money.

A lot of people wouldn’t have been getting full pay during lockdown for months. I don’t mean under £25,000 getting 80% so only missing out on travel, lunches or whatever. I’m talking about people earning a lot more in areas with bigger mortgages. You may have referred to ‘The race to the bottom’ before.

It’s bad enough being told what to do but if lied to as well then many ignore or worse. First lockdown was different because we didn’t know more than it gets mainly old and/or people with poor health or health conditions. Some thought it got anyone and 1-10%.

Exactly, all this fuss and it’s killed 0.1% of the population. Vast majority of whom were either ill, very old or both. £14bn per month on furlough scheme, it’s nuts. Vulnerable shield, everyone else get on with it. We’re nearly at herd immunity anyway.

I'd bet on lockdown III around mid February.

Gotta get on with life.

You didnt look at the line about another reason to be off work.

Well I’ve been out and about all day and I’m seeing no change whatsoever on the roads. Back in March/April things were dead but it just seems a normal day out there to me.

On the contrary, my wife and I made a 2 hour round trip to Surrey (Permitted as per the regulations) and we both noticed a distinct reduction in the amount of traffic on the roads.
