Ah ok slightly different to you saying what you did. Any close contacts would need to self isolate with a positive test.

Why do you think we’re the first country to lift restrictions when cases are rising at this rate?
No other country gone for a open everything and remove all restrictionsAre we?
I read something that said French nightclubs open today. We were about 10 weeks ahead of them on the vaccine rollout.

From what I've seen a lot of CV and CEV people, including myself and my family, were relatively confident with a move back to normality with some precautions still in place and an attempt from the government to minimise the spread of the virus. I'm not talking about anything that would require businesses to remain closed but things like masks on public transport & crowded areas, testing & vaccine passports for access to events, that kind of thing.But in that situation how can it ever be avoided by any government action as the risk is always now going to exist
Didn't the Jag furlough loads on the track? Thought you worked there? Or is that not manufacturing?A lot of the country - those in manufacturing- have worked through the whole pandemic
surely we are all in it together - or are supermarket workers, pubs, track workers collateral damage in the white collar worker eyes?
soon you’ll be whining at having to lay higher taxation - oh hold on you already have
Spain opened up in May when cases were low. Its led to a surge in cases. The decision to open up was described as “premature and dangerous” by the former director of Health in Crisis Situations for WHO, "first release of the state of emergency, then the end of curfews, then the opening of nightlife, then the end of obligatory mask wearing, led to a false sense of security and social interaction that is not protected”.Are we?

Test trace and isolate they ask the person who there close contacts are and contact them. The app is used tooOnly if the app says so
IsraelThey haven’t got 90% of adults either a vaccine

Easy solution to that. When cases are rising and its pinging too often just turn down the sensitivityOnly if the app says so

NHS Covid app to be made less sensitive after 60% rise in ‘pings’
The sensitivity of the NHS Covid-19 tracing app is to be reduced after the number of people “pinged” rose more than 60 per cent in a week. Ministers fear thatwww.thetimes.co.uk
Yep you did. Sounds like workplace have taken precautions to avoid issues. Once social distancing is removed likely increase in positive testsI’ve said under HR rules they aren’t close contacts
So you’re deciding not to protect others thenI’ve deleted it

It doesn’t protect others and many on here refused to have it anyway!
You are literally proving my point about paranoia - I have no idea how old your parents are but I know workers of 70 who have worked through and show none of those fears at all
You do realise that people are individuals and so will react differently regardless of how similar they may seem to be.
Also if someone who has had someone they know suffer badly or die from Covid is going to be more wary than someone who hasn't. Same as someone who has a history of cancer etc in their family is going to be more fearful of it than someone who doesn't. Had a boss who wasn't afraid of doing stuff and was a bit dismissive of those who were more introverted until he had a stroke in his early fifties and although he luckily didn't have any major issues afterwards in terms of movement/speech etc he became far more careful.
Pick and choosing which rules to follow then shaming others. Sounds familiar!

It's not really fit for purpose any more.Not really. It was set up before the vaccine roll out. I’m prepared to every day do lateral flow tests but a generic lockdown for 10 days if you’ve been in a pub near someone who tested positive when you’ve had both jabs is an entirely different scenario
One of my relatives died of COVID at a relatively young age so again you make sweeping assumptions about me.

Oh I don’t mean rules I mean if social distancing is scrapped there’ll be many more positive casesNope as they will still be within the rules close contact of less than 15 minutes is permitted as per the you gov advice
Isolating doesn’t protect others!!!!!! Course it does as you and I might be transmitting the virus without symptoms or before symptoms. It’s not rocket science my friend.It doesn’t protect others and many on here refused to have it anyway!
You wouldn’t be pinged then. It’s 15 minutes close contact.Not really. It was set up before the vaccine roll out.

So it really is a free for all then as everyone will use the worst case scenario to justify their selfish behaviour towards others. Lots of people get pissed up and act like pricks doesn’t mean the rest of us should. At least Boris was honest. Freedom day will beThere will be lots of pubs packed tomorrow and many will have people breaking rules. Should police do raids and arrest them?
Yeah I agree. And if you’ve not been out you’ll see hidden dangers everywhereIt's a good point about the outlooks of people who have carried on working and their views and people who haven't.
It's like different worlds with some things.
I still think the media are to blame in part too. If you're sat at home hearing scary stuff and numbers all day every day.Yeah I agree. And if you’ve not been out you’ll see hidden dangers everywhere
When I was trying to get my mum to be more careful as she’s clinically extremely vulnerable my sister was saying don’t be anxious or worried. And I was like I’m not I’m concerned for mum.
You make a really good point though as does Grendel in terms of work.
