Over the coming days, we’re likely to see government, retailers etc outlining new solutions. They won’t be perfect solutions for every at-risk group, but they will be much better than nothing. Applaud these moves for what they are rather than criticising them for what they’re not
Frankly, we’re beyond the point where there is a one-size-fits-all solution where everyone wins. This is what it means when you have to prioritise scarce resources, whether it’s NHS beds or toilet rolls. Not everyone benefits equally. But any net gain is an overall win
So when Dave from Twitter says “why don’t they just do this?”, believe that there are some very smart people who would have implemented it by now if it really was that simple. The fact they haven’t done it anywhere should tell you that ‘Dave’ hasn’t thought it through completely
