Get rid of all restrictions

I think it's time for all restrictions to be removed. There has been plenty of time for people to be vaccinated / boosted that want to, those that can't or don't should take their own precautions.

If we test positive then we shouldn't need to isolate, shouldn't need to declare it and should just treat it as a normal cough / cold / illness. If you feel up to going to work, out to the pub, seeing friends or family then do so. Everyone I know who have had it say they feel fine.

Life has been disrupted for far too long, the costs associated are astronomical and will be a crippling debt for generations to come.

From link:

The latest findings from Imperial College London and Ipsos MORI, covering 5 January to 20 January 2022 (round 17 of the study), show that prevalence in England during this period was 4.41%, by far the highest figure recorded since the beginning of the study, and over 3-fold higher than the prevalenceobserved in round 16(23 November to 14 December).

It means that during the period in which swabs were collected, approximately 1 in 23 people in England were infected with the virus."

We should still have plan B restrictions in place with mitigations in place for schools.

Numbers will get much worse in schools over the next few weeks in England due to the chaos that Boris & co are causing by dropping Plan B restrictions.

No, your schools prediction isn’t really playing out either. There are lots of cases among children, but schools aren’t moving to virtual learning like you said they would.

I stated early February.

Pretty much correct.
