I am genuinely surprised at how many lfts are being done. We have a mild variant and assuming vaccinated Contacts little chance of serious illness..I can see now how the populace are arguing themselves into a Potential lockdown
No we are trying to stop a lockdown by not spreading it if we are positive
Ok it’s supposed to be mild, however you are still ill, and setting aside why anyone in their right mind would want to be ill with anything, and if ill are likely to not only spread it, but also be off work
Let’s use an example of 10 firefighters on a shift. One tests positive doing a LFT although has no symptoms so that’s one off work. However he doesn’t test but goes to work, he then infects half the crew, so now 5 of work, and no fire fighters available as they can get no cover! Extreme, yes, but this is what is going to happen and I am so surprised you don’t get it
The point is to stop the spread to allow businesses, schools, emergency services transport and all the rest to carry on, not have a large amount of workforce of ill
As to your SIZk parents, what’s mild for you may not be for them
Try thinking of the bigger picture, not the obvious inconvenience to you
