"Tis better to die on our feet than live on our knees

[Mr Dee]

Part of me feels the government only removed the quarantine just enough for people to book a ****** load of holidays and flights before reinstating them. I'm sure I'm just being cynical.

Makes no sense , not that anything really has since this started .

Hospitalisations continue to fall in at least 3 of those countries and Malta hasn't had s death in weeks .

In this country we now have more hospitals than people in hospital with Covid

Well then why introduce the quarantine again in that case?

Also Do you have a source for that last claim?

Now I haven't read all of the posts in this thread, but would I be correct in assuming that there are people who believe that the global pandemic of covid 19 is just a mild flu that has been hyped up by the authorities and figures are being manipulated to scare the public??

On the most part the two main discussions were:

* The balance between protecting health vs protecting the economy.
* The pros and cons of national vs local lock downs.

Think the consensus by the end was that there are valid points on both sides and whatever decisions were made there would be downsides.
