I don't hold out much hope for avoiding a second wave with these measures, he's more interested in saving the economy than saving lives no matter what colour they are he doesn't care.
A neighbour of ours returned from their second home in the South of France after a couple of months yesterday now he used to work in Paris as the Air Attache at the Embassy before he retired.
So today she goes up to Sainsbury's shopping and he goes for a bike ride - there is no hope really as you say it's in the Great British publics hands and too many don't give a monkeys about anybody else's safety.
Its all rather sad but very true, no point in blaming the Government when in reality this in entirely in the hands of the Great British public, many of whom seem to have lost their senses. A second wave in the UK was forecast for the autumn /winter back in March, it seems that the true impact will only be felt when many more have unfortunately died from this outbreak, the economy is shafted and millions are on the dole. Having worked thru the really bad recessions in the 7O's and 80's including the three day week, the oil crisis etc we may well be returning to harsh and hard times ahead.
I live in a big retirement area by the sea and most locals are fed up of the encouragement of tourism during these difficult times whilst the area experienced twice the UK per capita Covid death rate...........A neighbour was knocked off his Harley just yards from home on the first weekend of the lifting of the lockdown restrictions by a women from KENT who was travelling a 600 mile round trip that day, she was in the NW for the first time in her life and there were no hotels etc open...basic madness.............................
My sympathy is with the NHS and what they may have to face in this upcoming second wave, hopefully the last 2 days have already shown a downward spiral in new infections is a promise of better things to come.....
Not looking good
Practicing my KEEP SAFE greeting again.
