England - £10,000 fines for self-isolation breaches

[guest189040]

It is a no win situation.

Token fines do not work.

I will generalise but with the majority of people born since 1960 there is a different set of Social Standards employed by them compared to my older generation, they seem very much self centred only on themselves, their close family and friends. 

Where is the respect for someone older than them that was instilled in us by our family and teachers?

It seems today that if your child does not have ADHD they are not normal, such is the rampant social problems with kids at school.

The world is doomed.

I see a breakdown of respect for authorities too and even some children toward their parents.

A Leicester Mother was on the Jeremy Vine Radio Show this dinnertime between 13.10 and 14.00 saying her Son is Covid Positive and complaining he is not isolating and still going out.

Let’s hope you never have to go into hospital or a care home.

Utter nonsense.

I'm not sure Mike, only time will tell.

BBC Radio also made a claim today of something quite awful looming, if a person catches Influenza and Covid-19 together during this Winter.

We'll only have the answer next March / April 2021, as to whether the claim has any basis or not?

I prefer the Manx way
2 weeks in self-isolation, or risk a jail term of 4, 6 or 8 weeks.

Our jails would be overflowing.   

The occupants of Jurby on the TV programme did not look too unhappy with being in there  . 

[BushInn1746]

a) Influenza virus and Covid-19 (SARS-CoV-2) are claimed to be two different viruses
b) Only 18% of those with Symptons were found to be isolating (UK Government via BBC) -

Which means about 4/5ths of those with symptons are not following instructions
