I fell like I'll be preaching to the converted but as Prof. Neil Ferguson is being trotted out to terrify the nation once again, here's an article I wrote all the way back in February which sets out just how bad his 'Gold Standard' computer modelling is.

Went to a pub in Scotland last night for the first time in months:
Mask *aren't* required while seated or standing at (tall) tables or while standing next to someone at the bar.
Masks *are* required for walking the *four feet* between the two.

Lockdown has resulted in the biggest wealth transfer from the young and poor to the well-off in modern history.
The chattering classes who are usually so animated with self-righteous outrage are strangely silent on this.
Presumably because they are the main beneficiaries.

Wear a face mask to mitigate the climate of fear perpetuated in part by the mass wearing of face masks.

Many ppl will (rightly) be enjoying the easing of restrictions moving beyond Level 0 brings. However, I know it is also a number of ppl will be anxious too. That is why we are retaining important baseline mitigations such as wearing face coverings in some indoor settings.
