Be interesting to see if we can avoid another lock down - stage 4 restrictions - before the vaccine is available in October.
Boris has given his ultimatum - either reduce transmission rates or I will order and enforce you back into lock down with severe restrictions.
Immediately all the white able bodied, display their core understanding of this message and rush to the coast,where they sit very close to each other on the sand.Because it's sunny and hot.
I think we can guess what is going to happen...
Just read Melbourne is gonna be in a 6 week major lockdown as of next week. Shame coz they done so well at the start.
General mentality around the UK seems to be "I'll be alright Jack. And if I get it, I prob won't die". These people don't seem to take into account if they do get it, their respiratory system can be damaged for years or indefinitely. Selfish, thoughtless mentality like this will not only cause the inevitable spike but also future inability to do the job they've been doing, so more on the benefit list too. And of course, they're the ones who will spread it.
Mask wearing is a joke too. I lost count last week how many people I saw walking around in stores with mask not covering nose or on the streets with masks on their necks and constant playing with their masks. If the virus has indeed been stopped by the mask it's fair to say it got on their necks, so consequently when they put the mask back on, they're gonna breathe it in. That's when they'll all moan and say it was pointless wearing the mask. I bet those out all day don't change their masks every 4 hours as recommended by the NHS either.
We ain't gonna win this, no matter what the government do or say.
I also saw a list of reasons people are exempt of wearing masks. Some of them of course I get. These people I hope will be out of their houses less frequent than others. But, 2 reasons for not wearing them had me in hysterics (almost). Headaches and tiredness are 2 allowed reasons for not wearing them ffs
. I've been back to work the last 2 weeks. I have quite a manual job changing displays in stores which involves stretching in and around unitary. It would definitely be easier and more comfortable doing this without a mask on, but I still wear one and sanitiser (using store supplied stuff at the entrance) entering and leaving each store. Most people walk straight past this stuff too.
