You’re going to stop being a knob-head?

That's a bit of a stupid thing to say isn't it.
No clearly those that didn't catch the virus wasn't news worthy. In the same way as everyone who wasn't murdered on the day Stephen Lawrence was murdered, weren't deemed news worthy!
Maybe an extreme analogy, but just trying to point out the only things the news are going to report are things that are, well news!!!

Well, that wasn’t really HIS mistake was it? The chap is just one of many casualties of Johnson’s herd immunity experiment. Allowing Cheltenham to go ahead was always a ridiculous decision, and folk like this are paying for it.

Although - and assuming that’s where he caught it - he went of his own free will. Boris Johnson didn’t make him go.
Let me out.
The country would’ve/was tiring of the restrictions. So reopening in steps is the only way imho.
In Italy:
Small shops reopened ages ago.
Hotels were never officially required to close, now many are reopening.
Large shops and all restaurants open on 18 May.
Gyms, swimming pools and sports centres reopen on 25 May.
Travel to/from the country starts on 3 June, WITHOUT quarantine.
Italian PM Guiseppe Conte said “We're facing a calculated risk in the knowledge that the contagion curve may rise again. We have to accept it otherwise we will never be able to start up again. Italy's businesses could not afford to wait until a vaccine was found, because we would end up with a strongly damaged economic and social structure".
That makes sense.
Personally, we haven’t yet met up with others or needed to travel away from the Brighton conurbation.

Its happening worldwide, too. Such is the effect of social media and the likes Twitter, it seems.

The government has eased the lock down rules in order to see if the general public can be trusted to behave themselves with the latter.
Obviously some still cannot help themselves, so I wouldn't be suprised if it goes back to the original ruling.
All in my opinion of course

You normally post such sense on NSc so I can't believe that you have posted this. The whole saga was blowing up at this time and there were questions raised as to whether Cheltenham should go ahead or not. Yes, the Government decided not to ban it, but NOBODY was forced to go - they went, knowing that there was a possible risk of infection and decided to take the chance.

Again someone confuses personal risk with the risk to others.

No. He was referring to a post that described an individual who chose to go to Cheltenham as a victim of Boris Johnson.
i meant people that also got it and were absolutely fine

Lets be honest the UK has never been locked up really. Talk to someone who experienced the lockdown in China or even Spain, that's a lockdown

Let the under 60’s out. Lock the old and vulnerable up. This is all getting a bit silly now. We never had a real lockdown. We have the highest death rate in Europe. It didn’t work. Can we all just get back on with our lives now please?
I agree but would raise the age to 65, look at the stats for under 65s who are fit (ish) and working. Its in line with severe seasonal flu numbers so I read somewhere ?

If the over 60s are locked up how would you spread it to them?
