I was surprised that Boris Johnson is seemingly so lax, I would have thought that his close call with the virus might have pulled him up. I'm not sure of the restrictions in the UK.... must look them up.
It is quite simple; some governments only care about the economy. So what if 1% of those who get it die? A long as the rich are making money, all is well. Of course, the small businesses are doing it tough, many will not survive,but if they think that reopening, and ending up with something like the projected 60 - 70% of population sick and up to 3% of those affected dying, is going to be good for their business .... Every country that relaxed the restrictions ended up with new clusters.
In America some large businesses are forcing people to work, and having them cut off benefits if they are too scared to come to work. some also forbid wearing of mask. When you have 15% unemployment and no benefits, there will always be enough of desperate starving people who will agree to work under whatever conditions.
It will be interesting to see how America vote later this year
