Often infected by younger people...



But that doesn't stop them passing the virus to the more vulnerable...



'A normal life' won't ever be the old normal, even with a vaccine



No, everyone needs to carry on distancing sensibly. It's not about individuals being comfortable with their own chances of getting the virus but it's all about reducing the chances of them inadvertently passing it on to others if they get it



The government should maybe make more of an effort to stick to their own social distancing and isolation rules? Then others might be more inclined to take them seriously. A basic rule of thumb is that one person in twenty in the normal population is a dipstick and, within the current tory cabinet (and its advisers) I suspect the ratio is much higher than that

But you're suggesting we must stick to the government-led instructions re Social Distancing (which we are told are based on science - when science doesn't appear to be in agreement on the virus).

Next paragraph you're suggesting the government are all a bunch of idiots anyway.

I personally agree with everything Wheeze says.
