Some honesty is needed. More socialising, even with social distancing, masks, etc., is clearly going to increase the infection rate. Why don't they, the Government, come clean with people and explain that we're all going to get infected and they are trying to manage the number of people becoming seriously ill, so that it's not everyone (or unmanageable numbers for the NHS) get infected all at once.
