It's not really true that lockdown cannot open the pubs again, take Australia. Their pubs are open. All because they mastered lockdown.
When a case occurs they close for a bit. But they're open 90% of the time. That a lot more of the time than uk pubs are managing.
I'd accept a working test and trace program too. Like Singapore used.
Don't think me greedy but... We could even do both, as we have more resources than Aus and Singapore combined and we've had a lot more time to do all this.
Once again, I have to ask: why hasn't my government managed such a thing? Could it be that it's impossible (despite Singapore having done it) or are they just too complacent?
Instead were stuck with the shitty parts of a long lockdown (closed pubs) without achieving the desired outcomes (single digit daily death rates).
