This furlough nonsense is and has been pointless. Job losses were obviously inevitable from the start. This Chinese Plague is going to have the same devastating effects on society as all previous global pandemic have had.
Shall we just disagree on furlough being pointless? I can categorically say it HAS NOT BEEN POINTLESS!! ...........perhaps you're not in a position to take advantage of what has been a very generous scheme, but many have and I hope they'll be able to return to work.
I wasn't around during the Influenza pandemic of 1918-1919 so don't have first-hand knowledge of that, but other than flu vaccinations for older people, there appears to be no long-lasting devastating effect..............and I certainly hope that with the advances in medicine and technology, there won't be for this pandemic!
