Easing into normality

Well at the moment we are at the end of week 10 of Lockdown. That is, until tomorrow. Tomorrow, June 1st) we have some schools opening up to children in England. Also, those in non essential shops opening on June 15th. My hairdresser is working towards July opening too.

All this is well and good as long as we don't have a second wave of the virus.As from tomorrow also, we have new guidlines for the lowering of the restrictions for those who are vulnerable and are shielding. They can come out and meet with others from a different household as long as its outside and they stay 2 metres apart.

Ive noticed that there are a number of coronavirus deniers on social media. Two people that I know are under the illusion that this is fake, the scientific evidence and the journalists are feeding us some sort of fake news (to coin a phrase) and are just whipping us up into a mass frenzy with their exaggerations. I don't believe it. As much as I dislike this government including the prime minister, I do think that that the virus is real and it has killed so many - although not here in Ceredigion. This is one reason why I and others are concerned that when Wales does open up to tourists, there will be a mass incoming of people and the virus.

It's a worry.
