Feels a bit like a bad dream, the rolling news doesn't help. Can sort of see the logic in trying to let life go on as usual as much as possible, keep morale up for as long as possible, if this is going to go on for months.
Pretty scant consolation when the most positive spin is 'I personally probably won't die'.
The more I read and reflect on UK government approach, the more I'm persuaded that maybe they are right to grasp the nettle now. If you accept the genie is out of the bottle and it will re-emerge even in countries taking strong counter measures now once they are relaxed, then ultimately herd immunity is the only way forward. It feels like it is going to be a rough road though.
