Ever considered the possibility that they are encouraging people outside because the disease is not as easily passed on outdoors.?
If they wanted to encourage herd immunity why would they ban visiting people's houses?. Or maybe it's the old double bluff. Tell people not to do something so you know they'll do it lol

Given that the virus is an airborne disease, I'd say a lot more people outside would be at risk than a couple of people at home. That is going on the assumption that said visitor is infected by the virus and will immediately pass the virus onto said home dweller.
Whereas sitting in a park with 5 others all 2 metres apart. Except behind you there is another group of 6 people socially distancing , another 6 behind them and so on. Being in the air with a lot more people I would have thought makes you more susceptible to catching it ?
I know what my money is on, otherwise what was the point in lockdown if socially distancing outside isn't a danger to anyone
In the simplest of terms transmission happens based upon the number of contacts and the chance of transmission if a contact is made. Lockdown reduces number of contacts, but it causes extreme economic harm. Hence the haste to open up.
With lockdown in place he contact rate is not high and the hope is that people will not revert to the same type of contact as before. People will hopefully be more aware and hesitant to be in close contact. However, clearly people are, because of the summer, behaving differently than they were in March. But, covid is mostly spread through droplets and sustained close contact. Poor ventilation helps spread the virus (air conditioning might be a big problem as people return to workplaces in hit weather and the air is recirculating). But, a larger proportion of contacts happening outside will reduce transmission over those inside (though still a risk).
I'm sure someone more science nerdy can beef that out.

I must say that here in Scotland we are closely following the instructions of Nicola Sturgeon.
She is very clear and concise and repeats the salient bits like Keep Your Distance.
I think England is heading down a rocky road.

Today's daily mail headline is saying 1 metre is enough. Such irresponsible behaviour when you know some people view that as the truth and will ignore other guidelines. Everyone has to be on the same message else it fails and to be far Scotland have tried to do that.
I hope everyone at the DM gets a bad case of coronavirus if we get a second wave.
Covid-19: business must get ready for the new abnormal - LSE Business Review
Anyone who has tried researching the future will know that it can be a fairly dumb-assed thing to do. You can always extrapolate forwards from the past. And something similar must have happened back then that we can draw lessons from, don’t you think? OK, let’s factor in some new events and...

The issue is likely to be that anything that highlights racial differences can be seen as bad taste at the minute, even if it’s not the case - there’s reams of studies that sit gathering dust because the findings are deemed to be likely to be conflated with racism.
