1/ . @ClaireCoutinho Unless the implementation of any such strategies as outlined in this Sky News articles are backed by legally enforceable regulations which are in practice enforced by the Police (see here https://news.sky.com/story/coronavirus-millions-of-over-50s-could-be-told-to-stay-at-home-to-avoid-second-nationwide-lockdown-12040780),">https://news.sky.com/story/cor...

6/ Should not the Gov& #39;t also be thinking strategies to curtail this channel of infection?
7/ Also, what I have not understood throughout this current wave of #Covid19: why is there no firm evidence from the "Authorities" (and by this I mean Local Authorities themselves, as well as the Police) of efforts on their part to prevent these huge gatherings of people in the…
8/ …good weather from happening at all, when it has become patently obvious that crowds in such numbers find it impossible to observe the current "social distancing" rules?
