Life is full of compromises and if the government persist with this 2m

I'm sure Bozo the Clown knows this but he's too in thrall to a bunch of
"experts" whose expertise seems to be based on little more than
suck-it-and-see
statistics.

OK. So we reduce the 2m distancing to 1m. This will increase the R
number a little. What are you going to restrict instead to compensate
and bring the R number back to what it would otherwise be?

I couldn't give a toss about the R number or any of this bloody nonsense
any more. The medics the government are listening to at exclusion of
EVERYONE else can only see one side of a very large equation.

From a purely medical viewpoint, we should all stay indoors until we no
longer have an economy. The government (when he's not driving to Durham)
has decided that practical considerations override this Sage advice.
