Absolutely. If anything will just encourage folk not to seek a test. Totally counter productive 

What’s a test got to do with someone blatantly flouting the rules/laws?

I thought the fine was for people not self isolating?

If you ain’t had a test, you aren’t self isolating and you’re not breaking any rules.

Problem is, squaddies aren't prepared or trained for this. We really are in the shit if we need troops on the streets.

They do quite well abroad in keeping the peace.

OK, its different, but I think they're more capable of doing a job than given credit for.

Face masks could be giving people Covid-19 immunity, researchers suggest 

Mask wearing might also be reducing the severity of the virus and ensuring that a greater proportion of new infections are asymptomatic

Cheers for this.

Very interesting. Also informative little diagrams as to the effect of wearing a mask on spread of droplets.

A College Runner Is Still Struggling With Symptoms Months After COVID-19 Diagnosis

Natalie Hakala has a PR of 2:17 for the 800 meters. Now she gets winded walking to the couch.

Sister in law has been told she has "long covid". Essentially, like this lass, long protracted symptoms. Fortunately not as bad.

Makes intuitive sense. Be interesting to see what further research shows. 

Viral load is hugely important. That's why a disproportionately high number of ICU staff died at the outset of COVID.

Presumably that would also have some relevance to other respiratory illnesses like flu etc?

Often seen Japs etc wearing them pre pandemic- maybe with good reason.
