Therein lies the problem. The alleged disaster is neither proven nor provable. There are as many theories as there are people doing the theorising and all are being held hostage to credibility.
I would not trust anyone's exhortations to supply data about my whereabouts or standing under any circumstances that may have arisen so far. It also seems odd to me that the millions of religious followers across the world are silent about a plague that is way beyond biblical proportions. Frogs and locusts I could understand, at least you can see them. The latest pantomime about being told you have been in contact with a Covid source but cannot be told who was the informer is absolutely ridiculous. To then attempt to blame data regulations is hilarious subterfuge. There are several economists from the last century who's opinions we are unable to have the benefit of and I'm sure their views on the real source and purpose of all this cobblers would be enlightening. Although the illness now attacking the population is real enough and those affected should be given every assistance to overcome the infection, the strictures and privations are self-evidently less than effective. How many times can you have a second strike?

No one that I do not chose too will have any more data than strictly necessary to allow me to operate in these times, if a company won't take cash, then they have simply lost a sale. I've said from the beginning of this whole debacle the reasoning behind the reaction to the virus was more sinister than the virus itself. I'm now at the bottom of the garden path, and need to find my way back to the house, so I can put the kettle on for a cup of coffee Brian |

Indicative Of The Casual Approach To The Virus
Though this relates to other countries, it just goes to show how this spreads around.......

Maybe its me but I feel there seems to be an inconsistency in how this is all being handled world wide.
Around the world there are thousands of people sadly dying every day from this virus and they are holding cricket matches, Grand Prix's and football matches to try and get things back to normal. I am not saying we can do anything to stop the advance of the virus but it just seems odd. |

Total numbers of infections are one thing. It seems to be that the higher the national gross number the more dangerous and therefore worthy of increased restrictions. Therefore the greater the pressure to comply with glib daily Q/A sessions on TV.
However, a thousand times more relevant is the density of the population and the 'cell' of localised infection. For the benefit of the bland cardboard ministers who think we are all idiot sheep, this is how you 'Isolate'; with a scalpel rather than a mallet. I don't know which is more scary, the apparent impression that we are all thick, or the dismissive attitude that we are not worthy of any credibility. It's not just wrong, it's damned rude.

First test match to start against the west Indies, I wonder who will be the first to put saliva on the ball & get the match abandoned!

I wonder if the people who are taking there last breath or are hooked up to a ventilator are bothered that we are now trying to put sport on TV. |
