I have seen the text messages along the lines of "I'm not letting Corona tell me what to do"
I'm getting a lot of this at home too. My other half is going to go to a gig tonight with her friends because if she didn't then she would be the only one of the group not to go. It's up to her in the end but a cliff-based analogy springs to mind. On top of that the wider family-in-law includes a retired doctor who seems to hold the conflicting views that a) a bit of a purge would do society in general a favour and b) institutions/experts are all liars paid by communist factions seeking to overthrow Intergalactic Overlord BoJo.

Doesn't seem overly cavalier. If we've seen about 100 cases, and even if the actual number is 100x that then 10,000 across a population of 65 million seem like it's still early to be avoiding all social events.

Well, if it happened before the referendum

Is there any reason to suspect someone at the gig may have it or are you just talking about general precautions?

Turns out the person hasn't tested positive, but HAS returned from Northern Italy and has a "cold" but not bothered self-isolating or getting tested. Now my wife's friend has a "cold" as well but also has no interest in self-isolation or getting tested, and my wife intends to have lunch with her this weekend (I have seen the text messages along the lines of "I'm not letting Corona tell me what to do")
