Coronavirus lockdown and exercising outdoors

[PhilipV]

Oh please, listen to your self righteous bolloks. We have been on LD for 8 weeks now. Do you plan on hiding in your house forever?? Keep your disgust and judgement to yourself pal, if you want to live in fear thats your business but the fear mongering claptrap is over. People need to get out and get back to work unless you feel you in the high risk category . This virus is going to infect us all within the next 2-3 months and all your fear mongering will not change that fact. You cannot hide forever.

You don't get it do you?

Not living in fear and being irresponsible is two different things.

Being irresponsible leads to clinics and business closing down until they can sort out disinfection and isolation/testing.

 

ChrisF has sites that were open, but are now closed, that is bleeding money. That is the exact opposite as to want when you tell people to open their business again. Open it, but be responsible.

 

Exercising in groups and without masks is stupid and irresponsible. What if someone in that group is asymptomatic?

Braaiing with your mate (as mentioned above) is stupid and irresponsible. What if someone at that braai is asymptomatic?

I think you guys have things a bit out of proportion.

I think you guys were being idiots. Hopefully you won't have to eat humble pie later.

Well Sweden is doing that, if that's what you mean.

But I can post links from American, German, British, Israeli (and South African) infectious diseases experts who say the same thing.

It's not working out for Sweden:

I went to a friend for a braai last night. Felt very liberating after 2 months of house arrest.

 

So no different to this lady then.

Sweden is doing just fine.  Its deaths per million of population are lower than Britain, Italy, Spain, France, Belgium, Netherlands - and it is well on the way to herd immunity.

Check out Professor Johan Giesecke.  He can explain it better than me.

No, because there was only two of us. Hardly the Crime of the Century.

I don't think anyone here is accusing you of being criminal. Simply of being flippant and acting with little regard for your fellow citizens.

Yup, and then being smug about it.

"Nobody cares about the lockdown anymore. I just returned from a braai at a friend's place. People across the road also had visitors over. Only the suckers still take it seriously."

Typical SJW response - why let the facts get in the way of your permanent state of outrage?

I do tend to say "meh" a lot.

Tried the 2 pairs of socks trick this morning, my feet thanked me.

Both in the shoes? Or one inside and one on top?

haha admittedly I had had a couple of glasses of red wine. But it's true I don't feel ashamed or whatever I am supposed to feel about it.

Both in the shoe.

Was a little tighter than usual but not bad.

I have dinner with my wife every night. The next day we go out and interact with hundreds of people at work. Is this any different?

[Fat Boab]

Why hide behind the herd? If it's your view...state it as such?

 

But before you do that perhaps ask for circumstances of the braai?

 

And even before that, question yourself whether you have transgressed any regulations lately? And if so, whether you had conducted your own risk assessment first to justify your decision?
