8/5/2020 0 Comments COVID-19 : Strange Days #3While the COVID-19 death toll gets seemingly forever higher, it seems to be a bit previous to talk about easing the lockdown and discussing just how the easing will be staged. I worry that too much positive promotion will lead to isolation complacency, which will in turn lead to upturns in deaths. At the same time, as is the case with most people I have spoken to (furloughed workers, those still working, those who are retired and those self-isolating), we are all essentially bored and need this to drift back towards whatever normality is. School children are bored, parents trying to home school are frustrated, those of us in the middle of property moves are worried, staff working in what should really be empty offices are asking why they need to be there, but EVERYONE is wondering when will these weird times end. Any celebration is muted, and even treated with a little lethargy. As I have written previously, birthdays are very subdued and today - 8 May 2020 - is a Bank Holiday to mark the 75th Anniversary of the Allied Victory in Europe in 1945. A little bunting and a few flags have been put out, but I cannot feel any enthusiasm for the day. Anyhow, we shall see what the PM and his advisors suggest over the next few days and weeks.
I hope that any measures are hardline enough to keep us sheltered from this pandemic. #StaySafe Dear Reader, you owe it to yourself and your loved ones.
