But just as Victoria is getting it's crap together NSW is starting to lose it a little. Still, not so bad job at doing the "impossible".
Serious. With our two countries we can be called the bad pupils of the European class.27,900 in England

Trying to get even more infected. Get sicker. I have a buddy from the Air Force who had a liver transplant. He's extremely high-risk. He still keeps travelling all over the Midwest to visit family. That's just one example. The more obvious ones you know about (not respecting the rules, etc).Their numbers ?

Over here in Portugal the gov has issued mandatory usage of masks in the street, and mandatory installation of a tracking app that recorded your locations and everyone you were physically close to, as well as giving the police the power to ask people for their phones and check for the installation of the tracking app.
While the usage of masks was almost universally accepted and seen as common sense (most people already wore them voluntarily anyway), the mandatory installation of tracking apps on phones on the other has backfired spectacularly, like was to be expected by any sane person. Not only the government popularity dropped like a stone, I also expect a huge spike in sales of old and dusty Nokia 3310's and similars, together with a huge rise in numbers of people who officially don't have mobile phones

But won’t it be more expensive if we don’t?Both countries have similar populations a similar outbreak and a similar economy.
We are running out of options. The U.K. can’t keep locking-down every few months and it’s the same in France. Spain is suffering even more
I know it’s crossing the line into politics but I don’t see how they can be disconnected.... in the U.K. we can’t afford another lockdown like before. It’s probably the same in France.
Some countries with budget surpluses can afford to close down their economy for longer or more often. The U.K. can’t. We did our best and it hadn’t worked.
The Chinese 2nd wave, is mostly down to 'citizens' not having mobiles, to track.
They of course, have computers watching maps, with lots of green, orange and red dots, which alert the operators when any red dots move. Basically, back at the beginning of this year: Most Chinese nationals, woke up to having a new app, on their phones, with instructions, on what to do, dependent on what colour they were registered as. That is how you 'STAMP ON' a virus.
Not having a phone, to make a dot, is every humans right.
What humans need, to make this work, to make themselves safer. They on the most part, (the mob) don't want, or will not tolerate happening. There is also the issue, of those, 'above such things'. Boris for example. Could not be added to such a system, it would be a national security threat and there will be a dozen easy ways to cheat the system. That said. Practically, every mobile phone, is 'already' a dot on a map, correlating the data, can be done, in many other ways.
In reference to both quotes above: I haven't seen anything on this, from the BBC, but from SKY.
Coronavirus: Police granted access to details of people told to self-isolate by Test and Trace
The Department of Health and Social Care has said information will be shared with police on a 'case-by-case' basis.

Which is already my case with my old Samsung SGH-X640 without connection on the net.I also expect a huge spike in sales of old and dusty Nokia 3310's and similars, together with a huge rise in numbers of people who officially don't have mobile phones
