Where was the advice to elderly and vulnerable people to self-isolate, if the strategy is all about spreading it among healthy people?

What about a snooker referee getting stung by a wasp?
Not the first time either, there was a wasp buzzing around Sean Murphy a couple of years ago at the same venue. He was terrified IIRC Never seen one at the darts at the Ally Pally tho...

I don't believe their forecast. They got it totally wrong with autumn predicting a warm one when we had November and October below average.
An autumn this frosty usually bodes well for a cold (relatively speaking of course!) winter here.

A remarkable number of frosts at Prestwick Airport so far for our coastal location. This morning was the 16th frost. This beats the weatheronline.co.uk record going back to 1996 (2nd place was 2010 at 12 frosts before 1 December). I suspect 1993 may have beaten it. 2010/11 of course went on to be a remarkably cold winter at least for the first half (tho not very snowy here). February 1994 had decent snow here, the only time my dad ever built a snowman in our garden .

The map of Europe certainly has a very wintry look on the models at the moment. I’ll go for a an uncharacteristically early guess of 6.0°C.

Using the 1981-2010 mean CET hides the magnitude of the warming. You'd be comparing the weather now to an already modified climate and would give the impression of a stable climate.
Yep, 1961-90, for this reason, I see as the gold standard.

Yes, but what I’m saying is there seems to be a LOT of emphasis on healthy people getting the virus but very little on preventing vulnerable people getting it, at least during the ‘first wave’. All I can see is they’ve told old people not to go on cruises
