Lets be quite clear, the virus has run its course and populations have achieved 'herd immunity'. More testing means more 'cases' being detected, but it does not mean an increase in death rates. All the vulnerable have died, the highest death rate in England is 0.8% or 99.2% survival.
What we have now are tests of public obedience, the latest being the absurd Rule of Six. Now that freedoms have been removed they will never be restored.
Anybody who has not had any scientific education, training or, better still work experience in laboratories etc, is at a huge disadvantage. Its far easier to dupe them.
Anybody who dares to question or criticise 'the science' or policy can be dealt with by the standard cancellation procedure; labelled an heretic, lose job and livelihood, possibly even home, burned at the stake on social media and excommunicated.
You can see why few speak up.
The old methods are often the best - delegate
One woman thought that it was her “public duty” to inform on a group of mourners at a wake in the garden of a pub in Wigston, Leicestershire.
Police officers visited the Old Crown on Wednesday unannounced after calling the pub landlady Sue Humphries twice to check that groups of mourners were not getting too close to each other, according to The Mirror. Police asked some groups be moved from the back of the pub to the front, but otherwise, the landlady said, they believed that no rules had been broken.
The informant justified calling the police on the some 30 people gathering to mark the passing of a loved one, telling the newspaper on Thursday: “I was concerned at what I saw.
“There appeared to be a large group of people drinking outside the pub and they looked quite close to each other.
“I felt I had to alert the police in case rules were being broken.
“I felt it was my public duty to report this and I would do the same again.”
She had also admitted to taking video footage of the mourners.

But it doesn't end with removing liberties and employing an army of curtain twitchers.
Third worlding the nation
The Government is considering giving energy networks the power to switch off a household’s energy supply without warning or compensation for those affected.
A series of ‘modifications’ to the Smart Energy Code have been proposed by officials and look set to pass into law by next spring.
These include giving networks the right to decide when they consider the grid to be in a state of ’emergency’ and the power to switch off high usage electrical devices such as electric vehicle chargers and central heating systems in British homes.
A series of backdoor ‘modifications’ to the Smart Energy Code have been proposed by officials and look set to pass into law by the end of the year
Under the plans all homes would need to have a third generation smart meter installed, to include a function that allows meters in the home to receive and carry out orders made by the energy networks.
This would dramatically alter the role of smart meters, which are currently capable only of sending data on energy use to energy networks.
If passed unchallenged, these ‘modifications’ to the law would mean that electric vehicle owners could plug in at the end of the day and wake up without sufficient charge to travel the next morning.
Similarly, central heating systems could be turned off in homes across a whole area if too many electric vehicles are plugged in to charge at once, for example.
Currently, consumers are entitled to compensation if their power supply is cut off, but under these plans, this recompense would likely be scrapped.
There is also a question mark over whether to force households to install the new smart meters, or make it an opt in or opt out scheme.

We are going to be energy poor very soon. The wind does not always blow and as for the sunshine, well you can't power a late night concert on it.
We could do what the Chinese are doing

They aren't stupid. Coal is cheap, western technologies have made it cleaner than ever, and it's always there.
The west is in for some very harsh times.
