Hi
It is a Coronovirus, same as colds, flu, SARS etc.
These are more prevalent when the weather is cold and humid.
Simple Public Health fact.
This is why you are advised to have your flu jabs in the Autumn.
No Coronovirus is ever killed off, they reappear, like Flu, every year.
Everybody has more Colds in Winter than they do in Summer.
They are simply dormant and mutating.
Some Mutate more than others.
Some mutate so as to be less infectious, some mutate to be more infectious.
It is a constant battle to develop, every year, a vaccination against them.
You worry about a Police State.
SARS was years ago.
Contact Tracing was a nightmare.
Much easier now, grab their mobiles, we know where they have been and who they have been in contact with.
We can track contacts, at the minute I am really not too concerned here in the UK.
The risk is minute, it really is.
The problem is that there is evidence that it is mutating rapidly
That is something we need to keep an eye on.
