I'm similar, i love and evening, (Or sunday afternoon) in the pub but never drink at home. Now the odd glass of sherry before bed. My aclohol consumption had probably gone down 0ver 90% since 21 March.

My sister lives overseas and watches a fair bit of CNN. She told me the UK is usually highlighted when referring to governments that have responded slowly to Covid-19 with disasterous results. This being an example: https://edition.cnn.com/2020/04/30/u...ntl/index.html
Well, wonder who will be championing Germany now?
Lockdown rules were relaxed on Wednesday.
What do symptoms have to do with testing positive for Covid-19? Weren't you posting the other day about a story that the German rate was actually 10x higher than reported - based on tests in a town/city where a much higher proportion of citizens than the national average were testing positive for it, despite not showing symptoms?
One of the things after the really worries me is how politicized and partisan this whole affair is.
People are so entrenched in their beliefs that the defense or criticism is of how this has been handled doesn’t falter from their views on Brexit or Trump.
One could hope that this could unite us for the greater good.
Not a chance.
I am fed up of banging my head against a brick wall talking to friends who declare themselves Libertarians about this.
They are pretty much all uniform in their views on how this is either a hoax or a power grab.
Vice Versa, you aren’t going to get much change from the left regardless of how it’s been handled.
Trump has handled this appallingly in my opinion yet “free thinkers” do not seem free enough in their thinking to go against the grain of a narrative.
So much paradoxical “insight” out there.
No worries.
Essentially, it seems to me as though people who consider themselves as “free thinkers” continue along the same path as they always have done.
In this particular case, a certain and common type of Libertarian who will not stray one step from the path of their outlook.
While they will argue that not “all” vaccines are bad they undermine the severity of what we are faced with due to their political fervor.
Invariably, their primary source of information will come from Zero Hedge and the likes.
