All those percentages, I was in a room with a several hundreds of people for days on end lots of other staff too, half the people weren’t wearing the mask properly either, either I was susceptible or I wasn’t. After about a year I did test positive but I’d already had 2 doses of vaccine by then.
If we’re able to operate more or less normally so could have most other businesses, the restrictions should have been, isolate if you are vulnerable.
Obviously there were no emergency supplies of PPE for hospitals or care homes that was a major failing.
I believe the cost of movement restrictions and test and trace was money wasted and I hope that it’s not repeated in any future pandemic.
