Just finished watching CoronaVirus -Protecting the Elderly, on ITV.
It's very stark. Every individual has a choice in everything they do from here and each bad decision could literally kill someone else indirectly. It really is a test of citizenship and we'll all have to Marshall one another.
I recall my father always gushing with pride when he talked of the Dutch people who would pull you up if you dropped litter. This was in 1969!
Having watched my father self-isolate for his last 2-3 winter flu seasons, and having been floored by the swine flu 'vaccine', my heart goes out to all the poor old folk and younger vulnerable people confined at home or in nursing homes, at the mercy of gobsh1tes and bad luck.
I think some of those young people partying should be locked into a room in an old folks home or a hospice and made witness what people go through as their life energy ebbs away. I watched over my father in law for his last 7 nights on Planet Earth. To spare the family the task and let them rest. I'll never forget the breathing, the long spells of no breathing. But most of all, I'll never forget the life in all of that twilight living, the staff who were so gifted and so valuable beyond a politician or an estate agent or a Garda or an Army Officer. They really perform the Trojan work that we'd all pay tenfold over for if we knew how we'd end up.
God bless all of the frontline health staff, particularly those who look after those who are becoming like children again. Let anyone who must die, die in dignity.

Hopefully the authorities will use all measures available to them to sanction those who blatantly ignore this societal call to arms. The threat is very real now, just lots of me feiners still about.

How would you enforce it though. The policing levels arent adequate.
