Whatever they are they change from day to day so how is anyone supposed to know?
I'd rather we just went into full lockdown.
It's going to happen because I can't see any other way.
They are talking about fast-tracking some sort of vaccine and need a few more months so a full lockdown every so often might be the only way to delay things.
The hospitals are filling up again and deaths are rising (I know the average age of death is higher than normal so don't go on about that).
If they don't lockdown then this will explode.

The whole country is snookered in some way because of this so another lockdown won't hurt us.

It will and badly. Take the first few months of lockdown for example, the cost of this will be paid for by the next generation so how many more lockdowns do we need before the debt is far too much?

I don't think it'll be another full lockdown, they'll destroy the economy, and they've already said that they can't afford it.

People will still have to go to work, education will still be open, as will food shops

The only way is to wipe it out, but the whole world will have to do it.

Get ready for the biggest lockdown after Christmas and New Year.
The coronavirus outbreak will be the biggest yet
Still, the old people will be fine with their vaccine.

Not necessarily!

A lot have already had it and because it was a recent thing they should have immunity.
Most people will still keep up their social distancing and sanitising etc.
The vaccine is being given out like sweeties now.
We might have a surprise!
