To think the Gov’t are ‘letting it rip’

[Tillsforthrills]

The rules that double jabbed household members of a positive case don’t need to isolate when more and more people are being reinfected even with boosters.

The rule that children don’t need to SI if their parents have it: spreading to teachers, early years workers and their families as well as their peers.

If they truly wanted to halt the spread, they would not have those ridiculous rules.

The only disruption is being caused by isolation rules? What isolation rules? The ones that say you need to SI is if you have covid.

Thus the reason for this thread, there is no SI rules to speak of apart from those that actually are positive so that reasoning is silly. Chaos is being caused by the virus and the lack of sensible SI.

Why silly?

We're all vaccinated and Omicron produces mild cold symptoms - why the need to self isolate for 10 whole days?

@blubells

I was referring to the comment that the chaos right now is due to so many having to SI, as pp said. Which isn’t true.

@Blubells

Also, it is far too early to say whether omicron is mild for most. If you read the papers and listen to the gov’t they are warning against that reasoning.

They're warning against it in case of a worst case scenario, so people don't throw caution to the wind. That doesn't mean it's not mild, just that it's too early to risk it yet until we know more.

I totally agree
