TAM , sorry to disagree with you again about this, but you seem to have an obsession with a forced lockdown of one group of society that is already disadvantaged. The people falling in this group will by and large know for their own safety that they must be obsessive about social distancing. Unless you know better i believe no other country coming out of lockdown is denying some freedoms to any part of its population as you would suggest.Good post Joe
It's a huge conundrum and a very difficult call
I've said it before for me any release from general lockdown to kickstart the economy has to be coupled with more stringent provisions for the ' at risk ' groups however unpalatable that might be to some
Problem is I don't think our govt has the steel to do that and even if they did they'd face a huge Baby Boomer backlash
They are damned if they do and the economy is goosed if they don't
