I would be on board with the UK plan if it was more proactively protecting the at risk population.

Why aren’t large events stopped? I get one infected person won’t infect a whole stadium... the main thing for me is people from all over go to these large events and so there is a high risk of introducing the virus to new areas by having them.

There should be more testing and local alerting. It would keep people on their toes and help individuals be more aware of potential risk around them.

At risk groups should be making use of social distancing at a minimum.

Even with this it seems risky. That said I understand the approach and reasoning. The implementation - so far - seems half baked and risky as hell.
