Stop using Slack

You've got to be kidding

Glad to see the leftist lilt on HN downvotes and flags anything contrary to the narrative.

As Denis Leary said: "Life sucks. Get a fucking helmet"

yougov also repeatedly reports that x% of the UK population want COVID-19 restrictions to continue indefinitely, along with the closure of nightclubs. You'll forgive me if I don't treat yougov as the main source of UK sentiment

If you can tell me under what exact conditions it ends, then we can have a discussion about it. Until then, and in absence of incontrovertible proof that it saves a single life, I'm out.

The absence of proven benefits is the issue. It is unscientific to mandate behaviour without proven benefit.

The issue for me, and I'm reading it in a lot of these comments is that there is no endgame. The times I've been asked "where is your mask?" I've never had an empirical answer to "when does it stop?"

Key takeaway is "mask requirement dropped". Everyone should feel free to protect themselves. Just don't mandate that other people do things to protect you.

Time to get on with enjoying your life because this never ends.
