How safe is this 'bubble'

Personally I’m ignoring all the governments nonsensical advice. They appear absolutely clueless.

I’m listening to the science, and am delaying any easing until the R is much lower. Being near 1 is too high imo

We don’t know. Any one of us could be carrying it at any time. We can only hope that our hand washing and distancing has been sufficient. I guess you could both get tested.

I think at some time we all have to take a risk that it won’t happen or are we going to carry on isolating until they find a vaccine to combat it which could be months/years away. I don’t think this virus is going to disappear anytime soon so I am going to follow advice and ‘bubble’ with one of my daughters household. Having said that I understand your concerns and you should do whatever you are comfortable with.

Just that really - I have seen my partner 3 times (outside, socially distanced) in the past 12 weeks. So, today I have to stay 2 metres apart from him, outside, and tomorrow suddenly he can come into my home and even stay the night with no social distancing. I just don't get it, it seems like too much at once. He is not happy that I am not keen to do this, it doesn't feel right to me. I work in a shop and he is a voluntary hospital appointment driver. How do we both know we are not carrying this virus - just so confused.
