    Are you in favor of not opening even after 100% vaccination ?
    You've seen the direction of infections, and albeit a lot smaller at the moment, deaths? You've seen the impact it's having on workplaces, schools and businesses?

    Just picking an arbitary number like 70% and STILL ignoring the facts of the situation? Just incredible.

    There is a point where we have to balance it but looking at the graphs, this is not it.

    You can't manage a couple more months without night clubs to get a lot more people to double vaccinated level, and hopefully cover a lot more under 30 category who are vaccine hesitant?

    Economy was already open to a very large degree back in April, it should be possible to manage longer without night clubs, cinemas, cheap holidays abroad and maybe even without pubs, IF that what it takes.

    I mean, there are different ways to look at the facts and often arguments on both sides... But to completely ignore them like that is just moronic.

    So we are really taking off - look how steep the curve is (in hot summer!) -



    About a third of hospitalisations, but with spread like above that should result in lots more going to hospital, and many to morgue

    Just open up the economy as every man and his dog is vaccinated.
