What is driving me nuts is the media doing vox pop interviews with people who moan about not being able to go to the pub or to a Christmas party or to visit family at the other end of the country. They just don't seem to get the potential consequences of allowing those activities.
I don't understand how people just don't get it. The only ones I feel for are those on their own like my widowed sister in law who has no family anywhere local to where she lives in Scotland. She is stoical though and like she says, once Christmas day is over, she can then meet a friend for walks as she has been doing but doesn't want to intrude on anyone on the actual day as the friend does have family. Also, I do feel for those who don't have long to live and think that if those who were planning to visit them have been isolating beforehand then that should be allowed.
