Dont See Your Granny, You're Causing Covid...

[nailit]

Just DONT get it.
My home town of Stoke on Trent was in danger of been put into tier 4, thankfully that hasnt happened.
BUT can someone please explain the following rationale behind this...

I can go to work. Work that its impossible to socially distance from someone else. (My van mate aint going to sit in the back)
I then work in a (small) warehouse, where we pass each other constantly.. cant be helped.

We have (today alone) picked up from factorys, schools, churches ,supermarkets, a main shopping centre and other venues where thousands of other people were.

On top of this we have schools and other learning establishments open, retail, religious, factorys, etc and yet someone going to see their gran is causing Covid???

Why is seeing your own family more detrimental to health than businness?
Does Covid somehow discriminate between a business and family?
Sacrifice family but carry on shopping???

Go and see your Mum. Make sure she knows you're there.
Take your sister some flowers, chocolates, whatever. She's had a rough time looking after her mum.

You know what is right for you Nailit, do it - try to concentrate on that rather than watching the news and railing at the rules.

Make the most of the time together.x

I completely understand your reasoning, Nailit.
Hope you and family manage to spend some quality time with your Mum.

[Maydup]

Spend the day with your Mum off course. But if I were your granny I would probably encourage you to stay away at Christmas since you're mixing with so many people. I hope your employers are giving you appropriate PPE and and safe working procedures to protect you.

Ive had enough of all this cobblers.
Shop, work, school, college, factory, transport, but dont meet mum or gran in case you spread Covid??
And now its all the fault of meeting mum or gran that Covid has spread?
Really??
Who falls for this carp?
Only the simple...

Nailit, you often complain of the covid situation we find ourselves in at this time. Stop listening to anyone. Don’t use face covering, don’t socially distance, don’t wash hands frequently, don’t clean hard surfaces at all. Shop and travel where you like. Visit Tom Dick Or Harry and relatives if you wish. Just stop moaning .

[MynameisLuca]

You are allowed to see people on compassionate grounds, and there's no one stopping you from visiting your mother.

[jennyjoan]

I echo Anneasquith, you have asked this question so much and you don't seem to get any answers that suit you, so just go ahead and do what you want.

This tier business is like a busy junction with numerous exits and entries , controlled by traffic lights .

If the traffic lights aren't programmed properly it will cause mahem .

The government is trying to programme the covid traffic lights and I'm not convinced the they know how to stop the mahem
occurring

Much more mayhem on boxing day I fear.
