Here is the thing that alot of people dont seemed to understand. When it comes to a virus, a pandemic, its either you do it, or you dont do it. For every one exemption, there are 10 other similar exemptions. And then more thereafter. And then what is the point of lock down.
The virus does not care about exemptions, or compassion. All it cares about is to replicate and spread.
Rubbish.
If you look at the case of the dying man who had to choose who could visit ? By your analogy that is just playing Russian roulette - the assumption is that one of them has it ?
Fact is that all his relatives were extremely low risk. They could have been tested and quarantined before visiting.
All of them with zero risk. A lot of these are just bloody minded heartless administrative decisions with no thought, mitigating a non-existent risk.
I am all for the lock-down when needed and all for quarantining , distancing and masks.
Anything to mitigate the risk but This isn't it and there is no reason to mitigate against no risk.
Then we have this case where for no reason the PM gave out all the details - despicable.
