Sadly I think this is exactly what the government are doing in a roundabout kind of way. It's like they are setting the path and boundaries with rules that they know are either impossible for folk to abide by or will blatantly break and protest against. Some of them are actually endangering us more so anyone with any sense will break them as it's a matter of survival of the fittest. It's difficult to say whether it's deliberate or not or if it's through incompetence and greed but we are in the millionaires club now for COVID deaths. That's pretty good going for island. And now they reckon this so called second wave is going to be bigger than the first. I would like to know how they predict this. It's like it's all pre-planned. The new years should be interesting after everyone has had the family visiting each other and having Christmas dinner. We could easily still be living with with the uncertainty with lock down, no lockdown, back to lockdown again this time next year.
For a virus where the percentage of deaths is less than 1%, Herd Immunity is about ceasing to run around in ever decreasing circles trying aimlessly or helplessly to kill off coronavirus and instead stand back and rely on survival of the fittest, where one's health can either help to avoid infection or help shake off the infection). The less fit (in the older age groups) will be advised to protect themselves, ie reduce the probabilityof becoming infected ..... and if they hadn't by now figured that out then they're already in God's Waiting Room. .
Only dotty jenny would describe that decision as euthanasia. It's more a Dirty Harry philosophy: "a man's gotta know his limitations". In the hyper-indulgent identity politics demonic-democracy that has run riot, there are too many people who don't know their limitations and too many governments who can't bring themselves to admit their's and therefore neither side willing to face reality. At the other end of scale there is Asia and the Far East, where governments know where to draw the line and its citizens are sufficiently mature or respectful to to abide or comply with where that line has been drawn or face the consequences (or like Hong Kong youth, eventually find out what happens if they overstep the line).
