For being annoyed at family breaking lockdown rules?

I have two family members both from seperate households who have not followed the guidelines since day 1.
1 of them making unessesary daily trips to shop for things like newspaper or bakery despite being in risk group and has a bad attitude for taking extra hygiene measures.
The second is worse in my opinion they have been visiting and staying over at their friend/new boyfriends house! He stays with his elderly parents and kids! Make matters worse she's NHS, working in hospital every day so surely has a higher risk of catching COVID19.
I have made subtle digs but now I'm really annoyed as she shares her daily going abouts with us and I feel like I either want to ignore her so not encourage it or tell her it's disappointing what she's doing. Am I just being involved when it's not my business?

I'd call her out on it, definitely, especially as she's NHS and should know better. You'd be doing a public service.

Some people are so arrogant that they feel they're above it all and rules don't apply to them.

Very irresponsible of her, just because she’s loved up with a new bloke. I would say something.

I would call them out in it. We need to stop this 'I dont want to be a busy body, it's none of my business' attitude. At the moment, everyone's actions directly affect everyone else. We are literally housebound at the moment, this will go on longer the more people flout the rules. I would say something.
