Sure, that's why I stay well away from high risk events. And if I had to take care of high risk people I'd lock myself in. I am not particularly at risk cos then... I'd lock myself in. I am not saying this is the right choice for everyone.
And the UK just happily voted in Brexit/The Cons. I don't know what to do.
Because you are right, but that's not going to magically let them open their wallets and hearts. No work? Good luck starving on universal credit. (though maybe this will wake up people...? some of them at least)
Meanwhile our local pub has to close again and they have been cooking meals for people during the first lockdown.
JWestland-
and i think that's what's so frustrating. as it stands, people with low incomes aren't really left with any meaningful choice. work and die of an avoidable disease, or don't work and die of fucking rickets.
i also appreciate that the ability to totally isolate is a choice only the truly privileged can make.

sure. but I'm not convinced sacrificing citizens on either side of that shitshow in service of propping up a failed, neoliberal economic system that exists to perpetuate further wealth hoarding is sending the right kinda message, like.
Mass unemployment and a vanishingly small number of individuals in possession of all the cash has never ended well.
also - staying indoors is better than... dying.
