but it's ok to do domestic travel? 3,000 miles coast to coast, as much as you want, as long as you don't want to fly to Paris. is that it?

You seriously think one has to be 'very lucky' to survive Covid, even if reasonably young?
Well several million people have been fatally let down by this "natural immunity", and many more left with long-term and possibly permanent symptoms, so clearly it's not particularly reliable. Just like luck.

Lucky to avoid the government directing your doctor to put you on end-of-life pathway the moment you come down with it, because you're too old or disabled.

well, this is inane isnt it. we dont know. im just accepting that it is a possibility.
I think the sorts of people you're thinking of are more than happy to watch the world burn from their fortified towers while they tuck into another panda steak. The moment things get too hairy, they'll be off to live on Muskrat's Mars colony with a harem of supermodels to impregnate and bring forth the coming super-race.

Ahh yes, these NHS death panels I've read so much about. Like the one that notoriously euthanized Stephen Hawking at the age of 22. 😞

No, they're actually nice people with a social conscience who realise that jettisoning 90% of the global population for subsequent sustainable redevelopment is morally better than seeing climate change render the whole planet permanently uninhabitable.

Clearly we need to reach an equilibrium regarding population, resource use and emissions - since the alternative is having an equilibrium brutally imposed on us - but it's a bit of a leap from that to killing off 90% of humanity, old bean.

Where on earth have read this stuff? Are you sure it wasn't a dream?
