    Mary had a little lamb
    Her Daddy shot it dead
    Now everyday, it comes to school

    I don’t know your age or general state of health but I honestly am not even slightly worried about Covid I am much more concerned about the long term effects of lockdown. 

    It's not a popular viewpoint because the debate surrounding Covid gets clouded by emotion but at times the cure for this pandemic had become worse than the disease IMHO.

    This makes interesting reading.
    For 7 consecutive weeks the death rate has been below the 5 year average (England) and that includes deaths from Covid-19.
    There was obviously that peak from March to May but I sometimes wonder what we are really so scared of.
