Is that Covid-related advice, or a more general observation about Frimmers?

Unless you sat with him over 2m away and for no longer than 15 mins at a time you have to isolate. Put the date of the pub visit in to your app and it will tell you until when. He's been very irresponsible / not understood the guidance like most people.

Scenarios like this are why people are not going for tests or telling people.

Or perhaps some people financially are f****d if they have to isolate for two weeks. There must be thousands out there like that. I'm not saying it's right by the way but I can sort of understand why people wouldn't get tested and put it down to a cold.

I fully blame the government here. Had they spent our money wisely and stopped coming up with 3 word doublespeak, we'd be in a much healthier position.

The fact they ae now making out Sunak is a saint for giving some people our tax back as if it's from under the shade of his own massive wealth is pretty sickening. But if you go for a test or have symptoms and ignore it, that's still some level or personal responsibility you must take.

Seriously are you mad? You can understand why somebody with COVID symptoms would just carry on a spread the virus to others ...that’s so selfish and ignorant I am lost for words.

You’ve just done their Track and Trace for them.

Yes, you need to isolate for 14 days and ideally get a test

I understand the point your making, but Frimley's friend wasn't financially f****d enough to refrain from going to the pub. As someone else has said, completely selfish and irresponsible.

Yes I can understand but I don't agree with it. If you haven't got a pot to piss in and losing two weeks wages meant you couldn't pay your bills or feed your family I can fully understand why some people wouldn't get tested.

Good point. I'm merely talking about people who live week to week.

You make a fair point. As Mullet said, this government has a lot to answer for.

For me, I'm more annoyed at the indecision and delay. Especially missing the opportunity to have a shorter but proper lockdown over half term. Despite having the data and expert advice. I've a feeling that these current measures will go on for much longer than most are anticipating.

New research shows that is probably not enough to stop transmission. Even wearing a mask, unless there is good ventilation then eventually the people inside together will get it.

There is a scheme whereby those forced to self isolate receive at least some money (£500): https://www.gov.uk/government/news/new-package-to-support-and-enforce-self-isola

I know, I have been debating sharing that with my bosses but given how thigns ae going I might be pushed further out of the door if I do!

I think one of the biggest illustrations of why we are failing as a nation is that people simply want to do as they please, and ignore that it might lead them to isolating. It's not fun, and not practical for many but if we could do it as a nation then life would be easier.

It's not an endearing British quirk as some people like to make out is it?

I think we might see another year or two of on and off measures.

I read it more as Frimley has to isolate and posted knowing what the answer would likely be. Helping himself to come to the conclusion of what he should do both legally and morally.

Given only around 20% of those supposed to isolate are doing so, I think he is one of the good ones, even if he needed a little nudge/confirmation to do the right thing.

Morally or legally?

It should be both but the government spaffed 12 billion, it is still morally the right thing to isolate
