Coronavirus - how is it/has it affected you?

Just brilliant that the NHS and public health are able to smash every target that the government sets for them. But goodness, we really do need to help the NHS staff recover after we are over the worst of this by doing our absolute best to keep ourselves well and by not using the system unless we absolutely have to...and when we use it we treasure it and respect everyone who deals with us and treats us.

And so as part of that I 100% support a cautious approach to ’opening up’ and relaxing restrictions on us - despite the difficulties the restrictions cause and the impact they are having on my family.
 
Will there ever be a possibility for oral vaccination? Imagine if they could post 70 million pills in a week, or we collect one from the pharmacy; and we would be fine with it.
 
Interesting quote from Professor Mark Woolhouse of Edinburgh University about being able to holiday in the UK and the inevitable outcry when beaches get busy, as they did last year:

Over the summer we were treated to pictures of crowded beaches, and there was an outcry about this. ‘There were no outbreaks linked to crowded beaches – there has never been a Covid-19 outbreak linked to a beach ever anywhere in the world, to the best of my knowledge.

The point being made that UK holidays are fine but the risk is foreign travel that should still be blocked.
