CV and mad panic behaviour

[LP]

TREAT PEOPLE EQUALLY FFS.  That doesnt mean promote, or deny one.  It means give everyone a level playing field.  This is why society is deteriorating FWIW.  We keep making bonehead decisions on the back of having made bonehead decisions because we keep trying to make it an eye for an eye.

While I'm generally in agreement with this statement, this COVID situation is a case in which the current situation is exacerbated by a very specific group behaviour and not really attributable to the wider community, yet it impacts everyone.

Governments are effectively powerless, and in most cases politically weak in the light of the current problems.

What are they going to do, publicly broadcast the fundamental cause and divide the community, it's untenable when the problem is really people not policy. It's too late in this case to do much, because the violations that caused the current outbreak came weeks ago when groups ignored the rules to host large family or community gatherings. Ironically, some cursory data suggests these groups are also the most vulnerable, they are actually the ones who should be ultra-vigilant of quarantine and isolation rules!

Political correctness and a minority privilege mentality has made things worse, yet there is no chance of it being address by politicians!
