Strange, that in countries that have the apps in use, people have stopped touting them. Couldn't have anything to do with the lack of efficacy, could it?
Isolation isn't just inconvenient it's also potentially expensive.
Talk of a second wave is nonsense and continuing to do so is likely to fuel "covid fatigue". The virus is now effectively endemic so outbreaks are inevitable as the recent outbreak in New Zealnd demonstrates. The focus has shifted to dealing with and containing those and improving treatments for those that need them. Oh, and a hugh sigh of relief from all concerned that mortality rate is as low as it is.
