As opposed to lockdown when they're not allowed out anyway ?
At least they should be able to make their own assessment.
The point I was making is that if you leave this virus to run riot, people who are medically vulnerable, young or old, are more likely to not want to venture outside for fear of catching it. If case numbers are lower then the same people might feel a bit more at ease about going out and doing the things they enjoy doing.
Again, I haven't advocated lockdown, I don't want this. But people should still be prepared to make small changes, make small sacrifices to help reduce the infection rate. To give an example...keep the pub open, but after the 3rd or 4th pint or glass or shot, no more alcohol. People should not be getting plastered in these times when it lowers the inhibitions and throws caution to the wind, should be a degree of personal and social responsibility here.
