This is different hack. Disregard the protests even. Alot of blue collar families are not complying and getting angry.
Of course they are not going to overthrow the government.
But the aim is low community transmission.
The Government can not police these people into compliance. By the time the enforcement happens, transmission has already happened.
The government has to change their strategy come 31 July. Stricter monitoring and movement in relation to construction sites and schools.
Apparently quite a few days elapse between a case and certain aspects of the contact tracing. In that window there is ample opportunity for further cases before people are alerted to the fact that they may be a contact. Vigilance and adhering to directions is important no matter how unpalatable they may be.
Schools are a problem in my opinion, although figures don't seem to back up any major issues...kids in primary school don't need to mask up, nor do they need to social distance but as we have been told can certainly be super spreaders of the Delta strain. Personally, I wear a mask during class time and when I venture into the playground and still follow the other rules that can help keep me safe such as social distancing and proper hygiene.
Due to time lines relating to vaccination I am booked in to have my first jab after waiting like everyone else in a small country area in line with advice relating to flu jab and the advised gap between that and the COVID shot, which for me (not my choice) is the AZ. A bit apprehensive but other than refusing to have it and locking myself away what do I do?
