Who "looks out for", in your wee world, the 115k folk who die of respiratory illnesses in the UK each year?? I don't remember special measures being put in place to mitigate the risks there. The truth is, of course, that lockdown and constant negative media and political messaging has successfully convinced a section of society that all of lifes risks must be mitigated.

Also why the travel ban and not being able to meet folk indoors? What is happening in the west makes sense but only if you ignore the measures taken in Aberdeen because they made none.

CJGJ Posted September 2, 2020 Author Share Posted September 2, 2020 Mentioned this earlier in the thread and it may be coming true https://www.msn.com/en-gb/news/coronavirus/mass-weekly-covid-19-testing-of-population-to-be-trialled-in-england/ar-BB18Eaal?ocid=msedgntp The UK government is to trial routine weekly Covid testing of the population as part of preparations to head off a possible winter second wave, as the former health secretary Jeremy Hunt called for such tests to become the norm. Matt Hancock said the government was committing an extra £500m to scale up testing capacity and launch community pilots trialling the effectiveness of repeat testing in schools and colleges, as well as in the population as a whole. It will also ramp up the trials of a new test kit that it is claimed can provide results within 20 minutes. The boldest measure will be a new community-wide trial in Salford, launching imminently, to assess the benefits of repeat population testing. Initially, the pilot will focus on a specific high-footfall location in the city with retail, public services, transport and faith spaces. Hunt, who now chairs the health select committee, said the UK should embrace mass population testing. “I would really want to expand the whole testing programme so we can almost get to a point where we are testing the whole population every week,” he said. “As an intermediate step I’d want to have expanded it by now so that we’re at least testing all NHS staff and all teachers every week, so people can be absolutely confident when they’re using hospitals, when they’re sending their kids to school, that they are coronavirus-free zones,” he said. “I think this mass testing could potentially be linked to an app on your phone so that you could show people on your phone the last time you got tested.” Hunt said mass testing was the key tool against the virus before a vaccine was developed. “In fact, if you had population testing there’s no reason why you, theoretically, would need to have social distancing: you could pretty much carry on life as normal because you’d just know that everyone you’d mix with had been tested very, very recently,” he told ITV’s Acting Prime Minister podcast. The government is also expanding other testing trials, including a pilot of the rapid 20-minute test in Hampshire as part of mobile testing in different settings.
