I have read most of the posts on this with dismay.
The OP was only pointing readers to where more up to date info can be found.
I’m a Brit who cannot visit our home in TV at the moment - but I am free of US political views. I don’t pretend to understand the rights under your constitution.
However, every country in the world is faced with striking a balance between individual rights and what is best for all citizens.
It’s not an easy balance and we in the UK struggle just as you do in the US.
The main difference is that most UK citizens accept that we are in exceptional times and therefore accept certain limitations on our liberties at present. Once we return to a more normal lifestyle our government will not be able to interfere as they are now doing. The people have not been influenced by political factors or politicians but by what is the best science at the time. That is what the OP was indicating readers towards.
The common good has largely replaced self interest in the UK.
I hate wearing a mask but do for that common good, knowing I may be saving someone else’s life.
