None of them were foolish and took unnecessary risk all of them caught it from the work place. Out of those ten I’d say three are ‘key workers’ the rest have been required to go to work but you really couldn’t call their jobs essential. I’m less than convinced that we are as yet on top of the virus.
I'd agree Dekka, there is a long way to go but the lockdown has stopped the increase in those going into hospital, and the vaccines will hopefully go a long way to reducing the numbers further. I don't think we can relax when we get the 1st wave of vaccines delivered because the under 50s will still be contracting and spreading it. Until we get the majority of the population vaccinated it will be difficult to open up properly, and even then it will be baby steps.
I think we are heading in the right direction though.
