Todays permitted exercise!

[Oracle]

Surely not, the roads are absolutely deserted right now. It seems counterintuitive to stop people from driving a few miles to nearby countryside to run or walk and thereby reduce the number of encounters people have with each other. It runs contrary to the idea of social distancing.

Since most people live in high population density where they would otherwise exercise, and they are travelling to areas of low density when travelling to exercise, therefore it increases average distancing , so I disagree with the restriction on travel to exercise.

Indeed. I am ambivalent about such as the lakes, wales and Scotland telling others to stay away, when the resources and infrastructure of those areas allow for transitory populations of five times at least in summer the population in March, and still leaving those areas far less dense than in the cities , where many folk travel from. They are not covidiots, and the NIMBY attitude Of locals is selfish in my view.

The most outrageous actions are closing parks in urban areas such as Victoria park. Anyone who has lived in a windowless box in London knows access to green places is all that keeps you sane. Provided the people are distancing whilst there. Forcing people to live in isolation without access to daylight will lead to suicides.
