So if they are given the opportunity to go to a beach, they will.

It's not like they all decided collectively to create a large crowd.

Well no but it must have crossed their minds it might be busy? and why leave all that rubbish behind, maybe Extension Rebellion need to go and block the beaches give London a rest

But it’s that kind of selfish attitude that results in a repeak of cases

I'm sure the "missing" human rights could have waited until the world wasn't facing a pandemic :shrug:

Then there's no reason to assume going to the beach would. An open space in the hot sun is a less contagious environment than a cramped city.

Well if you even bothered to read the article you’ll see it said it was because of an increase in social distancing at marches, incredibly unlikely the same can be said in these pictures

The article says

Quote:

Researchers determined that protests may have been offset by an increase in social distancing among those who decided not to march.

so it balanced out? Like, all the spreading of the virus caused by the marches was cancelled out by people social distancing?

Let's hope a proportionate amount of people were social distancing while others went to the beach ...

Yeah pretty much

I think your second paragraph will be right tbh, level of compliance with restrictions and distancing measures is still very strong across the country as a whole

Cummings too. Yes it's led to a lot of confusion, but thousands flocking to beaches is just plain right idiotic. Sometimes we need to take responsibility for ourselves.

Exactly....we are all adults...he can only guide us.

I doubt they do, and I fear for next winter because I have a feeling this virus hibernates in the body.



Oddly enough I heard a surgeon discuss a similar theory a couple of weeks ago .. . he’d done some tests on people who’d had the virus but recovered and had tested negative afterwards.. yet he found the virus cells STILL in their bowels and their lung tissues.

It kinda creeped me out at the time given I’m a terrible worrier.

I don't think the public are selfish really.

They've been pretty obedient when it comes to the rules over the last few months.

Yes, mocking people being killed for existing and being treated as subhuman. Makes you look real clever.

In Bournemouth
they were, parking their cars on Bus Stops
and grass.
All got tickets.

Greedy Rush to the beach and golden sand
which was far to many close to each other.

I bet you most of those people at the beaches are the ones most vocal about social distancing

Boris never wanted a lockdown, he wanted 'herd immunity' (AKA sacrificing the old and infirm) and he had to walk it back but now we're heading towards that original plan and people are disregarding everything because the leadership is **** and inconsistent.

Boris is a terrible PM and this crisis has only confirmed what the smart people have said all along.

Your conspiracy against Boris and this Government is alarming.

They're all selfish, brainless idiots.

Ammi 26-06-2020 05:32 AM

...I don’t think that in general, people are selfish or brainless or idiots...(...obviously those things will always apply to a few individuals...)..I agree with James, in that the guidance on the whole has been followed through this...and that guidance has at times been quite shaky as well and left so much ‘risk assessment’ open for interpretation...life has not been the same for all of us over these last months, so it’s easy to say...oh, how could you risk/how could you be so stupid..!!! Etc...but for some, they’ve needed that day at the beach and they’ve felt the need of it so much that they have taken risks....so, so many things and factors of people home schooling, having their children between home walls for 24hrs a day without a break, losing jobs and having no income, having to face food shortages and not having an income to afford a luxury of being able to stock up...daily, I’ve spoken to families who a few months ago, were ‘ticking along’, but who now have intervention teams of social workers in their lives ... mental health in parents and in children is at such a low....people have struggled so much for months...the scenes at the beaches yesterday is not a comfortable sight but it felt very much an understandable sight, though...those people, many of who may desperately want to have their children back at school but are unable to yet...took a risk yesterday because their mental well-being would have felt that need to...
