[QUOTE="Miserable, post: 462154, member: 15969"] No. It's far too soon. Look at Germany, Spain, look at countries that had full control before it even started, and now look at them - all of them have seen spikes in their positive results! Do we even know if that's the full count of confirmed cases altogether? Absolutely not! We know for a fact that some people may not even know they've had it until it's too late and they've passed it on to what could be another 5 people. *to add onto this, all these countries have made masks mandatory where less than five feet of distance between people is not guaranteed (We're currently only wearing masks on public transport) '[I]However, we are still identifying small, controlled outbreaks in concrete places. And if these outbreaks are not controlled correctly, they could cause a new resurgence' - [/I]Fernando Simon, Spain’s chief epidemiologist. Is our goverment really ready to control those small outbreaks that Spain are seeing? Could they keep it under control? I very much doubt it. So, yes, I do think it's too soon. I also think letting our vunerable out freely is also a tragedy waiting to happen. Our beaches have even appeared in Australian newspaper headlines because it appears to them that we do not have control. ' [/QUOTE]
