According to former Strictly Come Dancing professional and Reality TV veteran, James Jordan, it should be the young who are to shield and the older folks (who are more "sensible) should be allowed in society.
This annoys me on so many levels. He seems thick as mince, clearly not much of an understanding of the purpose of shielding and just an overall ageist sentiment (not the first anti-youth thing he's posted). Also wouldn't be any good for the economy. The more I think about it the more it angers me.
Thoughts? Would this be effective or is he talking nonsense?
FWIW, I think over 50 is a bit extreme, some in their 50's are in decent shape, it's more the over 65's and particularly over 70's that I would worry about.
Although the older you are the more likely you are to get COVID-19, and they are now saying over 50’s should shield I believe it’s the younger generation that aren’t taking it serious so let’s make them shield and let the sensible people crack on. All they wanna do is party
