I think it's about time we dropped all the covid19 gibberish now.
We need to stop the constant testing - after April 1st it shouldn't just be that you have to pay for a lateral flow test - they should simply no longer be available to anyone except hospitals for the purpose of testing patients with symptoms. Not for any old bod to constantly test themselves.
Also schools, colleges, universities and basically any business, organisation or building that isn't an NHS hospital should no longer be allowed to demand people take a Covid test - regardless of whether someone has symptoms.
If the way out of this pandemic is to "live with covid" then let's actually start doing that. Let's actually just live alongside Covid-19 rather than still demanding children take a Covid test for the slightest little sniffle. It's nonsense. It's ridiculous. It cannot continue like this if we are to ever return to something close to normal - if we are to ever "live with it".
In keeping with that, we need to stop using covid19 as an excuse for being shit. GPs not holding face to face appointments because of the risk of covid19 - nope! That needs to stop.
Businesses serving food and drink need to stop using covid19 as an excuse for running an "easier to manage" scaled down (shit basically) menu and they also need to stop hiding shit poor service behind "...we might take a bit longer to serve you and prepare your meal due to enhanced covid19 procedures to maintain safety" - utter bollocks and just another poor excuse for basically being shit.
The time has come for us live with Covid-19 in the same way we live with cold viruses, flu viruses, measles, chicken pox and other contractable viruses.
