I would seriously rather suffer some more deprivations and shrinking of the economy to keep my folks safe and well. They are retired and able to self isolate without any real extra cost to them.
I am still working and have more than a decade to go to retirement but I am in a very high risk group. I am lucky in that I can work from home for the time being without being furloughed and am helping companies put finance packages together to survive this.
If I get a bad case of CV19, then that's probably it for me so I say eff off Roger.
Also in an odd turn of events, it strikes me that those right wing nut jobs in the USA who are turning up to their state capitols brandishing assault rifles are the real "snowflakes" because they seriously can't stand not getting a haircut or latte for a few weeks. For heavens sake, this is peoples lives that you are playing with for the sake of a few percent of GDP at the moment.
I do wonder if they are the sort of people what would leave lights on in a black out because that was their "right", regardless of who would get bombed because of it!?
