I think there has to be a certain amount of realism here. If you look at supermarkets at the moment, yes there is social distancing in the queues but I have yet to see a queue with 2 metres between people. Same when you get in store. There are less people in it but I have been less than 2 metres of people and staff on numerous occasions. And we haven't all come out of the store with the virus. All I hear at the moment is fear fear fear. Then I hear about how we can't keep borrowing. How we can't afford social welfare. Other Countries like Spain, France and Italy and now 2 weeks and more into their opening up and none of the Countries has seen a spike in infections. We are going to be living with this for a long time but we need to start living.
They have completely lost the balance between public health and the economy which I can understand. Nobody wants to be accused of putting lives in danger but at this stage, they seem to be afraid to do anything unless the Chief Medical Officer says it is ok.
