Researchers at the University of Warwick believe a "rolling age-release strategy" to let younger people out earlier combined with social distancing is the safest way out of the UK's lockdown':

Here’s the summary(without the Sun’s inflammatory interpretation), and the actual paper.

Not all 20-30 year olds...

To minimize that risk, we could restrict the release to those young people who do not live with parents. Those released would presumably also have to give a strict undertaking, upheld by the law, that they would avoid all other older adults...

... Therefore, of the 20-30 years old, 7,836,394 x 0.47 = 3,683,105 lived with parents in 2018. Hence 4,175,428 were not living with parents in 2018.
So nearly half of all 20-30 year olds couldn’t go out, while their friends could.

Yeh, I can see that working...
