Fair play, we're at 3% as of yesterday, but we're running two doses of the MRNA's three weeks apart.

Hopefully now we can ramp up now AZ is approved.

This kind of reporting from them (I like The Guardian in general, a lot) is just depressing..

Everyday Covid mistakes we are all still making

Can we do more as individuals to help slow the spread of coronavirus? We ask the experts

www.theguardian.com

What do they want from us? just die in despair?

I think someone on here is ghost writing for them.

I can’t go to the pub.
I can’t go to a cafe.
I can’t go to a restaurant.
I can’t visit family or friends.
I can’t go to the gym.
I can’t go and play golf.
I can’t go shopping anywhere in England.
I can’t go on a foreign holiday.
But some on here think the lockdown isn’t a proper lockdown?
What else do you want SHUT DOWN?

90% of shops are open.

100% of people I know who work are still working, 80% work in non-essential workplaces.

But hey, its lockdown cos the pubs are shut.

Not round me they aint. Shops that is.

Food, garages, banks, post office. Thats it.

Not a clue about work mind.

I went to renew my licence a few weeks ago, the only shop I saw shut was Primark, every other shop was open.

I mean if your telling me B&M and Home and Bargains are essential shops then.................

They do food though.

 

[Charro]

People are lying again.

"We" clearly have different ideas of whats essential.

In our local town, no more than 10-20% of shops are open.....

 

[Goat]

People are lying again.

No, people are telling what they see.

I honestly didn't note down all the shops that were open, but I was shocked that only Primark was closed in my area.

As I say, we have different versions of whats essential.

In March when we locked down everybody I know, bar my daughter, wasn't working, this time around every single person I know is still going to work.
