Exercise takes many forms and some can be done in your room. Maybe the window can be opened a bit for fresh air ( I realise some don't ). Ten/ eleven days without sunshine isn't a big problem, in the UK we can go that long without seeing the sun...just get grey skies. :P

It isn't like going to jail, it isn't internment it is
quarantine!!!
. Why worry about returning from some countries? Because there are variants there which might affect the efficacy of the current vaccines. Its a matter of public health.

edit to add: I do wear my mask properly so I'm complying ^_^

According to the Oxford, it is:
Original message details are unavailable.

internment
The state of being confined as a prisoner, especially for political or military reasons.
https://www.lexico.com/definition/internment


If they're not letting you leave, you're a prisoner.

If you haven't committed a crime and you're being imprisoned, you're being interned.

If you're being imprisoned along with others for non-crimes, that's an internment camp, by the very definitions.

Criminals, who have committed actual crimes, even murder, get to enjoy fresh air outdoors at least once a day, unless they are in solitary confinement.

The covid hotels are basically taking innocent citizens and placing them into solitary confinement. It's absurd, and unlawful.

And, umm... as mentioned previously... it can actually contribute to the spread of the virus:

Well, that's convenient. People test negative, get put in a quarantine hotel, and end up contracting the virus. Can someone explain how that's helping? O_o

Um, it's a bit late to try and separate the milk from the water. The "new strains" have entered most countries already. It was actually last year near the end of the summer that the new strains were spreading across the world. The media just didn't bother reporting until december. That's why the new curve has a higher spike in cases, but lower fatality. That's the new strain.

Me too. I find a lot of people who aren't wearing their mask properly, don't seem to be wearing the right mask. If you can't say a few words without your mask falling off, then you're not wearing the right mask. If you can't walk a few steps without pants falling off, then you're not wearing the right pants.





It's easy to wear a mask properly, if you have properly fitting mask. COMPLY.

Boris will be making his BIG ANNOUNCEMENT at 7pm.

I'm expecting him to have caved in, again, to pressure and be opening everything helter-skelter. No doubt the contamination level will skyrocket again in a few months but I doubt there'll be another lockdown here. Country's skint now from all this yo-yo'ing. I'm dreading The Budget speech.
