You seem confused about lockdown.....you say it should be lifted because it's causing more deaths.... more than the 21,000?....you say it was to "reconfigure" the NHS and now that's been done it should be lifted.. and then in the next breath you say it is the density of our population that is causing it to spread... ? The people staying at home haven't "reconfigured" the NHS..we have done it to ease the terrible pressure our frontline workers are under...to stop the spread of the virus..to not infect those we love, and vulnerable strangers with this extremely highly contagious disease, for which, at this present time, there is no vaccine, and no cure...there is, it seems, also no absolute guarantee of immunity once you have had the disease..there is however the chance of a horrible death if you catch it. Hospital visits have not stopped..my dear SIL has been diagnosed with cancer and her treatment arranged..all since lockdown..but I can completely understand that non-urgent treatment, such as "routine scanning" is having to wait...as it should.. My husband and I both had hospital appointments..follow ups etc. that have been cancelled, and so be it.. we miss being able to hug our family like everyone else, but we won't selfishly put everyone..family, strangers, front line workers, at any more risk than is absolutely necessary. There is no doubt that there have been failings by our government, and things we should learn from other countries handling of the situation..and also note that those who have eased lockdown notice an increase in infections.. Germany being the latest....but as it stands just remember, if you have that infection, whether you know it or not, your potential to infect and spread is enormous...this is not just a "normal" virus...and the only solution, until a cure, or vaccine, is found, is lockdown
