But contact between the under 40s and over 40s will be near to none existent for a period of 3 months let's say. As I say in my original post, those in the 18-40 age range who live alome or someone in the same age cohort should be allowed to physically go to work and socialise with others in their age cohort.
The reality is millions of working age will not have a job after the lockdown/furlough scheme. Everyone seems completely and utterly blinkered as to the economic damage this will unleash. It's all about protecting a few thousand vulnerable people - not the socio-economic well-being of the other 65 million people.
It's madness. We need the GDP and unemployment figures ASAP. Then the tenet of the debate will thankfully change from one fuelled by media scaremongering (i.e. death) to one of balanced pragmatism (i.e. mitigating economic destitution).
Meantime in six months time in Sweden they'll be laughing.
Its a lot more than a few thousand I think around 1.6 million classed as vulnerable.
I think everyone is concerned about the damage to the economy and clearly there will be some damage but I think the doom mongers may be overdoing it a bit after all its difficult to predict anyway because we have never been in this situation before.
