Yep. Meet people outside, stay away from people inside. It’s not difficult, is it?
Nothing makes sense at an individual level, but it is more about reducing the exposure when you look at the bigger picture. Nothing is going to stop it but if the measures reduce the R number from say 1.1 to 0.9 it's worth doing. If all of the general public could be trusted to be sensible half these measures wouldn't need to be brought in. Unfortunately there are countless thickos that won't take any notice of advice, but some of them might not ignore enforceable rules, so we end up with what seem like bizarre rules for all.
Plenty of parents home school their kids to uni level, the parents just have to be motivated ,most people cant be arsed
That is ok now but in the shit weather we have coming everyone stays in, going back to bubbles would be sensible i think, mixed messages again, that is where the infection is from one minister but today there is nothing being done
I'm grateful that hasn't been brought in widely, for selfish reasons, we have a 7 day holiday booked in a cottage in Somerset next Friday, and our daughter and boyfriend are coming to stay the weekend with us there, we haven't seen them both since Christmas (we did have a nice afternoon walk with our daughter in the summer), so we are really looking forward to it, obviously we'll be mindful of the situation, but we didn't want to cancel it. We both live in areas with relatively low case rates at the moment.
I get all that, there’s always plenty of selfish twats who’ll ignore the rules, my point is why 15 only at weddings compared to 30 at funerals?

They're using those countries (and ignoring the rest) because their data fits the direction that the government wants to take our national "response" in.
