Just to give some insight here, lots of people are concerned about the elderly and vulnerable. However lots of people are also concerned about the mental health of the same, and the younger and healthy as well. Even more people are concerned about the effects of anything more than a couple of weeks of lock down.
Scientific advice may well be to stay like this for months, maybe years. And in an ideal world that is what would happen, but this isn't an Ideal world. People need money to survive, and to make money people have to work. Some of us are lucky, we can do that from home. Most people however cannot. So the longer this goes on, the more people are pushed to the edge. And when people are backed up against the wall, they will fight back.
We are still some weeks away from that, but the clock is ticking. If anyone thinks the current situation is bad, just wait until the unrest starts. And mark my word, it will.
