Look I understand that many folk have differing opinions on the pandemic and the way it’s being handled. But as a society, we have to show some pragmatism here. Regardless of how severe you think the pandemic is it does pose a great risk to a lot of people. As a society, it’s on us to come together and try and give a level of protection to folk who need it. It may not require any heroics etc but that doesn’t make it any less important or worthwhile to those who need us to help protect them. Likewise we as a society are trying to find ways of opening up so we can keep the wheels churning. So nothing in all of this is ever going to be black and white, and the vast majority of folk just want to do things that will help.

So measures such as vaccine passports and masks are just a part of that. If you feel it’s impinging on rights etc that is perfectly fine, but there will come a time later when that can be addressed. But for the moment these extraordinary times are requiring us to make some (imho simple) sacrifices) – I will always keep an eye on the balance between restrictions and the severity of the pandemic, but at this stage I know we are still in the early mid stages of the pandemic and all sorts of stuff can still go wrong. (Pandemics of this type don’t burn out quickly)

So I think we have to take a bit of a step back sometimes and take a pragmatic view on all of this, time doesn’t stop and we can always address any issues that arrive later… 🙂
