A couple of my kids have been through this in normal times with similar outcomes.

We all have sympathy with the current generation who have gone through the debacle of A Level results. made it to university to be charged £5 grand for a cell for the year and get stigmatised as virus spreaders a couple of weeks after the government incentivise for people to eat out and socialise ended.

I can't get to my Mum in her care home as her life ebbs away but I don't blame students for that and knowing how proud she was that I was the first member of our family to make it to university she wouldn't either!
But thats exactly what a lot of them are - virus spreaders who obviously couldn't care less about the rest of the population. They interviewed one young lady on tv last week in her ‘cell’ who was moaning about not being able to go out and missing all the freshers week activities, which she had worked so hard to achieve and then towards the end of the interview she coughed a few times and admitted that she was self isolating because she had been tested and had the bloody virus !! I really do despair at these people.
