The government and media have scared people half to death and given them the idea that a vaccine will solve this......the 'stay at home' message has been a disaster...The using of Police to intimate people using their gardens...totally mad.

The media, in particular, are very very responsible for doubling up the fear and celebrities were used to amplify the message.

I still can't believe that we had people being called idiots for being outside and sitting in the park!. I honestly think some of us have watched way too many movies....and I'm the prepper on here.....I'm the one who thinks you need a permanent month's supply!

This thread has been dominated by those supporting the idea of full lockdown, despite the resultant mess and widespread misery and death that is going to cause. I believe that time will show that these decisions achieved little and that government folded on herd immunity when the reality was it was the only show in town.

I back humanity to eventually create a vaccine for a coronavirus......but it has to be said, it has never been achieved before.

H1N1 which caused the 1918 Spanish flu, which killed tens of millions is still around and is regarded as seasonal flu. The Hong Kong flu of 69 (H3N2) which killed over a million worldwide is still around and is part of seasonal flu. There are no vaccines only treatments. They exist mainly, but not always, as their weaker strains because obviously lethal versions kill the host quicker and so gradually die out quicker....whereas the virus that doesn't kill the host and survives within the host and continues on without successfully attacking the host. Many people don't realise that most of us have been walking around with viruses inside us most of our lives and our immune system is constantly evolving.

People who think that they can sit inside until there is a vaccine need to realise how unlikely that is anytime soon and that only herd immunity reduces their risks of catching flu or viruses.....that and time ending with only weaker versions remaining and with a very infectious strain like this.....I'd imagine that would take a longer time than usual.

Very well said, only the lockdown was necessary short term, and pictures of multiple groups of people in parks weren’t wise. There were even tw&ts by the river in Richmond playing instruments to people congregating around them.

We now have some people who have had to work, are prepared to work, know they’ll need to work, or are going to find that one out in July, or definitely in November. But teachers, or the NEU, are threatening to stop the country from getting back to work.

The country is going mad and I have no sympathy for anyone who suffers financially after supporting this, unless they’re in a vulnerable category and they’ve somehow been shafted or the government haven’t covered them, which they should be doing for longer, and less for those who can and should get back to work.

If those hibernating forever eventually die from Covid then will that mean all union heads will die?
