UK Government too impatient to give lockdown a chance to work

This Saturday it was announced by so called “experts” that the current coronavirus lockdown which was brought in one week ago, was not tough enough, and they may have to make restrictions even tougher than what they currently are. To sum it up, they introduced a new lockdown and then gave it no more than five days before deciding it wasn’t strict enough. This is absolute absurdity. The current lockdown hasn’t even been given a chance to work. Do these “experts” really think that they can just implement a lockdown and they will achieve results overnight and the infection rate will just suddenly drop? It is well known that it takes at least month before the lockdown effects start to be seen, but of course government ministers and the SAGE scientists are too impatient to wait that long. 

Already they are discussing tighter restrictions. We are already in a national lockdown. How much stricter can things get? A dome over towns and cities like in The Simpsons Movie? A seatbelt to barricade us to our sofas with a bucket to piss in, just in case we leave traces of Covid-19 on the toilet handle?
