In this episode, Fran and Kev answered some very thoughtful questions from listeners and discuss the impact that the pandemic has on church life. Could have the church responded differently to the governments' pressure to shut down back in March? Has the church acquiesced too easily to this pressure? Kev reveals his struggles with lockdown, and Fran announces his wish list for Easter.
The Financial Times has the following tracker where you can compare different countries. This highlights what I mean about the UK and Sweden is similar:

Also, in the government's own latest 'roadmap' (https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/963491/COVID-19_Response_-_Spring_2021.pdf (https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/963491/COVID-19_Response_-_Spring_2021.pdf)) it states that Covid-19 is a mild illness on page 13, section 35 and it states the following on page 59, section 196:
196) Like some strains of flu, COVID-19 is a relatively mild illness for much of the population, but it is more dangerous to vulnerable groups. The Government will ensure the country can live with the virus in the longer-term without imposing restrictions that bear heavy economic, social and health costs. The outcome of the four programmes of work set out in chapter 3 (large events, COVID-Certification, international travel and social distancing) will inform Government policy on living with the virus.
