What happened to these people before covid anyway?
As for that guy, he's saying should they if they're not ill and test positive? So that test could be a false positive. Presence of a virus' RNA in a sample taken to run a PCR or LFT on doesn't make that person infectious to others does it?

You ask questions so clearly there are no obvious answers. You throw various diseases in the air but they are just deflection to be fair. I am not sure Ebola is on the rampage and I am confident that the cold is not as deadly as Covid is to the vulnerable.
The bottom line is that the people who are shouting for "freedom" are the ones who, typically, are not potentially at risk and do not have loved ones who are. It really does come down to "not my problem, mate". Maybe a reflection on who we are as a society?
