"It never was lockdown for us,cause as key workers we were committed to work all time much harder than usual. Only more trouble to do shopping,child care etc. Hope all back to normal soon" Thanks for your work We went out last night, meal and pubs. It's pretty much over. We managed to walk in to 3 pubs after we had been to the 2 we had booked. We didn't have to supply any details. One had hand sanitizer at the door. One was operating a one way system, but other than that, it's pretty much business as usual. I can see why some pubs are operating like this. If they have to effectively track and trace, if they get a case they have to shut. They just can't afford to I suppose. | |||

"I think to most people it much more about getting back to a sense of normality now while keeping to certain things eg face covering on public transport and keeping distance while going around town etc. To myself it all about having some common sense which is sadly lacking in this day and age." | |||

"Here we were at stage 2 of reopening everything and then last weekend numbers sky rocketed. My little town is now on the watch list because people are being stupid and having parties and not practicing safety. I dont go out unless I absolutely have to...but people in my area are idiots. Im sure the government is going to put us back on lockdown because of this." I've been led to believe from various CV forums I'm on , that no matter what happens we won't go into lockdown again because the economy can't take it. | |||

Yep probably this So regardless of second/third waves, huge increases in cases/deaths, it's a stuff upper lip and get on with it" Pretty much The new French Prime Minister has said no more lockdowns as the cost to the economy is far to much. Regardless of subsequent waves. Our own goverment own message has changed this last week from work at home were possible to stop working from home now and start working at work where at all possible to help save the economy. We have the sapre beds and the unused nightingales in place so i cant see and more full lockdowns happening now as the economic damage is just to great let alone the damage to peoples mental health and loosing everything they have worked hard to build. I work for a council and its very much a clash of 2 opposing sides. On one side are those still scared wanting to lockdown fully under the virus is pretty much eradicated and on the other side you have people back at work fifhting to get all the services back online to a, save jobs and b, support our residents. Meetings have become very ugly in recent weeks. KJ x | |||

I never stopped work. Life in general stayed the same. All bar one thing. I wasn't able to see my child. 3 months I went without seeing her or touching her. Was real hard. But its been about 5-6weeks now iv been able to see her. So life really is back to normal. Soon the social life will pick up | |||

"I think we all need to put the risks into perspective and remember must of us are far more likely to die this year from something other than CV19 than we are from CV19. A UK male aged 35-44 has a 1 in 663 of dying in an average year, 1 in 1106 for ladies. This rises to 1 in 279 and 1 in 421 for 45-55yr olds. Of those 30-49 who tested positive the average mortality rate in UK is about 0.1% or 1 in 1000. Yes I take precautions to avoid CV19 but more to reduce the risk to others than myself, I take precautions to try not die of many other things too. I don’t normally live in constant fear of dying this year so I refuse to live in fear of dying from CV19. Be safe and be sensible but don’t be afraid (unless you are high risk, sucks to be you, sorry). " Its not dying of covid you need to worry about especially if you are under 60. Its the long term damage covid does to your lungs, kidneys and heart etc. The % of long term covid disabled in younger people is many times higher than the death rate. | |||

Know about the kidney and lung damage from someone in my family. His renal ward was full of covid patients at the time. Normal discharge is kidney function of 20%. He was discharged at 17% in one kidney because the bed was needed. Kidneys can recover a bit over time but he will be lucky to have 40% kidney function. We won't know the extent of long term damage covid has done for years especially the lung damage. I am not saying don't do something but don't just look at the death rate. | |||

You said "The % of long term covid disabled in younger people is many times higher than the death rate" I have been told different and whilst covid19 can have terrible effects on survivors it was explained to me that roughly 50% died in ICUs and in the other 50% who survive the chance of serious long term effects is very high.

"There was a lockdown? Thank fuck I don't watch the news. " Pandemic/lockdown and social distancing is something that should be taken seriously and not lightly. This has effected the World. Some people think it may be irreversible... but we are a resilient World! So no virus is going to stop us from moving forward. No matter how contagious it is! Watch out for fake news though Because that is on the rise and I have to admit it took me by surprise because I was not looking or listening to that sort of information for a long time! So my usual guard/barrier for such manipulation of the truth had a weakness! Weakness being my good nature and heart strings being pulled on for a fake sob story. Grr-ing That will never happen again. Stay away from fake news and stay safe from Covid-19. That virus is one contagious... * !! | |||

Being positive doesn't mean you're going to die, just an number on the stats " The fact that we had 1-2 cases a day and 1 death in over a week and a rise to 19 KNOWN cases because someone threw a party. No it's completely insignificant and not a true example of what could happen soon if we're not careful. But many said in February not to worry .... Didn't they ? | |||

"Just to add a little more detail to the previous contributors message from the point of view of a couple that have been at their IOM residence since early March....... Lock down was over in the Isle of Man too around the same time as Guernsey with similar rules/restrictions. We had an air bridge (no self-isolation needed on return) with Guernsey from 22 July and many IOM & Guernsey residents took advantage of the opportunity to travel freely between the two islands. Unfortunately the air bridge had to be closed down mid October due to an outbreak of 7 cases in Guernsey. Not long afterwards there were cases identified in the Isle of Man amongst IOM residents returning from the UK/incoming key workers travelling under special permits. The air bridge has been suspended since then. Thankfully, to date, those Covid cases on the IOM have been identified and confirmed as not being in the community (all are in self-isolation) so life carries on as normal here too. It simply is not possible for ourselves (or Guernsey we suppose) to stop everyone coming to the respective islands as there is always a need for key workers to enter or residents that need urgent medical treatment which can't be provided locally to leave or to allow non residents in on compassionate grounds etc (all with the requirement of 14 days self isolation), but we're managing the situation quite well so far. " Yes I would agree with the above we are managing it really well and we have been quick to react and very strict so we now get to live normally and don't have to understand a tear system and get a normal Christmas :D | |||

It simply is not possible for ourselves (or Guernsey we suppose) to stop everyone coming to the respective islands as there is always a need for key workers to enter or residents that need urgent medical treatment which can't be provided locally to leave or to allow non residents in on compassionate grounds etc (all with the requirement of 14 days self isolation), but we're managing the situation quite well so far. Yes I would agree with the above we are managing it really well and we have been quick to react and very strict so we now get to live normally and don't have to understand a tear system and get a normal Christmas :D " | |||

"Nothing like the old normal here. Avoiding crowded places, pubs, shops, and anywhere that involves a queue. I can work from home and although I've had to go in a couple of times to get things but fully intend to carry on working at home as much as possible. I don't want to be caught up in having to isolate, so the less places I need to leave details for track & trace the better." Lol pubs aren’t open! | |||
