Had you left it at the end of the first sentence I'd agree. As usual though you also had to add to it.

My second sentence merely addresses the subject at the heart of the paper so I fail to see why it’s so objectionable.
Time will tell as evidence arises elsewhere as to the veracity of the paper. Hopefully not in our hospitals.

The virulence of CV-19 and thus of a new strain that beats the current vaccines requires vigilance and perhaps pre-emptive measures that, no doubt, the Guvmin will declare.

Re: Coronavirus
I should have met my sister to restart or Saturday morning breakfasts in McDonald's.
But she called me to say her hubby did a LFT, and it said positive, so he's isolated himself in their bedroom that has on-suite, and she is on the sofa, her and the kids did a test, and it was negative, they will do another one on Monday.
So I'm on stand by to do their food shops.
My niece called her work, they are OK with it.
So until his LFTs show negative, or they test positive they won't join him, but if my sister goes positive she will join hubby and the kids will have to do the food.

They should all arrange to have PCR test, LFT's are OK but the PCR tests are better.

Re: Coronavirus
They should definitely get a PCR test ;

* you and anyone you live with should self-isolate immediately
* report your rapid lateral flow test result on GOV.UK as soon as possible
* get a PCR test (a test that is sent to a lab) to confirm your result

A negative LFT doesn't mean he's clear of the disease. He needs to self-isolate as per the rules.

And the rest of the family too for 10 days, though it seems sensible to have the husband living slightly separately.

Wearing masks protects others from you, as long as other people are wearing them I'll extend the same courtesy, it'd be rude not to.

And while they could do as heero_yuy suggests it’s economically undesirable. People took that much personal responsibility in Sweden they went into recession anyway despite “no restrictions”.

Re: Coronavirus
Restrictions, especially those enforced via the law, do need to end at some point though. If the legal requirement isn't removed now then when? The summer strikes me as a useful point because any surge can happen now rather than the winter.
