I too am far from happy about what is going on and why. One often hears the phrase "follow the money" so somebody somewhere is going to profit hugely from all this.
This curtailment of our freedom is doing my head in as well. I'm over 70 and have always believed that what will be will be and if it's my time then so be it, so like most of us if I was worrried about something happening to me I wouldn't ride a motorbike of do the other things I enjoy doing either. I know from experience with medical problems that the NHS isn't going to be in any kind of a hurry to treat me so I don't want wrapping in cotton wool, I want to live whatever time I have left to the full, not just exist in a cacoon for the sake of being alive.
Didn't somebody say "If you're not living on the edge, you're taking up too much room" ?
That's my rant over.
