tbh i think they've privately accepted there will be a lot more deaths from Covid, however the economy is now coming first. As long as the NHS doesn't get overwhelmed. It might make economic sense as long as its not one of your own family, or you now think you're immune...

Next winter will be the issue if there's no vaccine, and the usual increased admissions due to flu etc. The time to prepare for that is now, not wait for it. There should be increased taxes on those that can more than afford to pay. But will they do the right thing or just wait for events again?
