I am going to join in the thread. As a 70 year old ( which these days isn't considered old) We are fairly careful, my husband is 80. He does most of the shopping, but other than that we are careful. At the week end we went out for a meal, mask sanitiser etc.All ok.
But, I do think enough is enough, and we need to learn to live with covid. The elderly die every year of flue.
I think all schools, colleges universities should be back in full time time education. f one child is ill send tem home , but not the whole class. ( Their parents have to work for heavens sake.)
All pubs restaurants, pubs, gyms, swimming pools horse riding, any thing, night school. (I could go on and on) you get my drift, should be open as normal, no booking just as it used to be, ie The old normal!!
No qeueuing at shops spacing etc.
Most of the people who contract covid usualy survive whithout too much problem.
As for those who die, or survive with long covid..... so be it.
People will eventually develop immunity. When a vaccine is developed.
good that will be even better. But we have to do something about the economy, keep people in work, the country is dying on its feet.
If people want to go into work let them, if they are worried, stay at home. We have to find a way to make the OLD NORMAL work.
Appolgies if I have gone on a bit.
Thank you for reading.
