Let’s be honest you’d not support an implementation of legal restrictions based upon approaching the threshold of hospital capacity. We’d be straight onto OF Covid or WITH Covid to minimise the importance (or otherwise) of hospitalisations. The important thing would be the deaths. Then it would be they are all old, or underlying health issues. And those would be minimised.

You’ve no genuine interest of having an informed public making decisions based upon their own personal risk.
What about the statistical chance of getting flu?

I do not understand why you are deliberately ignoring the fact that hospitalisations due to Covid are pretty low, and we have probably just about reached the peak number of infections.

This is no longer the desperate situation it was, due to Boris Johnson’s master stroke of investing in vaccination development at an early stage. He was the first leader to recognise that vaccinations, not lockdowns, were the way out of this.
