(6,485 posts)Imo. Voted no. Many measures are still needed. Will they be taken, wth knows. My guess is no.
2000 or more are still dying per day. Official count is over 900,000 but we know its a much higher than that for the full time so far.
Are we supposed to ignore this and pretend none if this happened and is happening. I remember when the cases were 15.
Even if you were not personally affected that is a bridge too far for anyone who claims to be a good person.
At the beginning so many lies were told- not just by dump et al. Such as masks will not protect the wearer. It is too hard for a layperson to wear a mask properly and more- wash your hands to stop an aerosol transmission which was known as the main transmission.
I just wonder what people are going to say if a new more deadly variant arrives and large numbers of people start dying- in the younger age category, we know something will be done for sure, or all around, will there still be calls that we should just get on with our lives and ignore it ?
