I would take a bet, you dont know anybody that has had the virus or died from it.

Wrong - this morning one of my friends died from it. You lost the bet .

currently, 1 in 85 have the virus.

it’s the same odds of rolling 3 dice and getting 2 sixes and the third dice showing a 2 or 4 or 6. Get this and your in hospital and or dead. Roll the dice every time you meet someone ( within 2 meters )

do you want to play the game?

I take the view of Pascal’s wager.

if I wear a mask , etc and the virus does not exist , then no great loss (look silly etc)
If it does exist, then I have cut the odds of me suffering or someone else.

therfore, whether it exists or not is not relevant..... obey the rules anyway.

If you don’t believe , then do away with the blue book - how many people are we saving from electrocution versus the number who have died from Covid.

let’s state ( I really mean it - that the IET ) serves no useful purpose today.
There are more deaths from ovens than all other causes and there isn’t anything covering use of ovens in any of the manuals.
it’s just. a method of collecting £100 every couple of years

I hope the Vaccine starts to work, this is a nightmare for anyone over 70 who gets it. I hope the government does not start another "eat out to help out" scheme too early, that was a major factor IMO why it came back so quick, the Lockdown was stopped and then millions mixing in cafes etc too soon after, Fingers crossed this year will see the Virus beaten
