[QUOTE="Tarw Coch, post: 7102217, member: 1008"] When lockdown first came in it was fairly well respected, essential travel and essential workers only, the roads were unbelievably quiet but even with that level of people movement it took a long time for the number of deaths and infections to drop, certainly a lot longer than the 14 days the govt recommend to quarantine for. It was several weeks before lockdown started to break down, with mass gatherings, BLM protests and a couple of large raves in Manchester at which point the death rate was still fairly high, i and many others expected a spike but we haven’t seen one. Since then lockdown has ended, many buisnesses that were shut down are back up and running, the roads are pretty much back to normal, and with the pubs open social distancing is far from being observed by many, there were some mass fights in our local town when the pubs re opened caused it would seem by many from a Welsh town who’s pubs hadn’t re opened at that point plus there’s plenty of photos on Facebook of groups of friends out for the night all huddled together. Not that I’ve been to the pub to see for myself but I live close enough to see what’s going on and I have plenty of experience to know that alcohol lowers inhibitions. Yet despite a lot more people contact the figures keep on dropping, that’s a good thing obviously but not what I’d have expected. [/QUOTE]
