    There will be germs in general.
    It's just changed how everyone looks at things.

          In the days of 'free' carrier bags (when my elderly in-laws had problems that required many of them), we were amazed to see the checkout operator lick their fingers to open each one in between picking up our shopping (including unwrapped items) to scan it and would not stop.

          So we left the lot half scanned at the checkout, went to CS to explain and complain, then did our shop again to get clean shopping that didn't have saliva on it. Didn't see them doing that again,

            Some might be too embarassed to take a faulty, used 'appliance' back to the chemists.

              More strange happenings around here.
              Just drove past the church, large gathering of council personnel with, community warden, written on their backs and police.
              Must have been about 40 of them in all.
              As a side line Morrisons was full of Asian people this morning.
              For some reason I couldn't get near the fish counter, they were all queuing up and buying 2 or 3 whole salmon each. :scratch:

                  They've got a special offer on. Cut the price from £9.50kg to £5kg.

                  I'd have been there if we had a Morrisons nearby.

                          Be interesting to see if Hull and the East Riding of Yorkshire will be top of the 'League' again in a fortnights time because it looks like the lunatics have really taken over the asylum today.:doh:

                              That may well be the order of priorities, but it would be a logistical nightmare sticking to it rigidly, so I'd expect some of those top tier priority groups to be vaccinated together with some from lower priorities for the sake of efficiency, especially in areas with low population density.
