Anyone still ignorant enough to think Covid-19 is the same as the flu may be beyond reasoning with.

The second major difference is that COVID-19 causes more severe disease than seasonal influenza.

While many people globally have built up immunity to seasonal flu strains, COVID-19 is a new virus to which no one has immunity. That means more people are susceptible to infection, and some will suffer severe disease.

Globally, about 3.4% of reported COVID-19 cases have died. By comparison, seasonal flu generally kills far fewer than 1% of those infected.

So they don't breathe further germs into the already - ill / into open wounds?

It's also because bodily fluids and particles are liable to be emitted from the patients, and nobody wants to swallow or inhale them.

Covid-19

One of my work colleagues tested positive for C 19.
Didn't seem to bother him too much.
Seemed pretty mild.
Seasonal flu would have hit him far harder.

Around 80% of infections are. 20% or so aren't. (numbers off the top of my head)

Most times you squeeze the trigger playing russian roulette you're going to come out of it fine. One person isn't s big enough sample.

Not much help.
"‘It won’t be a compulsory requirement because it won’t always be right for every setting in a retail environment, particularly those working behind the tills and so on."
Why not?

If that's not good enough for you, **** off and write to your MP.

No shame in saying you don't know - or nothing at all.

The lockdown was never necessary for a virus with .2% mortality same as seasonal flu.
