I really want to see my bf during lockdown?

it ****ing is. it's mentally damaging.

I can see everyone’s really divided in the answers to my question, but most people are saying not to visit him. I won’t end up visiting him. It’s just so annoying when I see people my age posting pictures with their partners who I know don’t live with them on social media, it just makes me think well if they’re doing that why can’t I see my bf? It’s a selfish small thought which I’m trying to silence obviously.

1) it’s against the ****ing law. You can get fined £200 on the spot. If you have that money lying around go for it. Also never mind that it’s ****ing selfish. Stop being so ****ing conceited and think about other people for once in your life
2) her parents may get seriously ill, it’s not just old people getting the virus. Her parents may also have underlying health conditions you don’t know. So stop being a **** and obey the law

1) who cares if it’s against the law its everyone out for themselves
2) her parents are unlikely to get it bad or die, it’s over 80s who have mostly died and middle aged is not high risk. The largest spread of corona is in hospitals and care homes

So firstly, I didn't say that I broke the law or intended to. Yes, you can get fined if you're stupid. Let's say she went to her bf's house... the police aren't going to see she's inside. On the journey there if you supposedly get stopped you can say you're going on an essential journey e.g the shops. I don't think it's selfish to go out if its for your own mental health. And yes, there are people who are not old getting the virus. But the majority of those getting it are old, and I think she may have mentioned if the parents had underlying health conditions. I for one will not be following more rules past April or Easter holiday. Ret**d

some are actually ridiculous.. or the whole thing about vaccinating over 80s? lmao whatever for. not like they have a lot of time left. they're probably just test bunnies. i mean it makes no logical sense, old people rarely leave the house. vaccinate working age people?

You're rude and aggressive and I hope you die from the virus you love so much. 1500 people did not die yesterday you sheep. There is always a lag in reporting meaning some of those people will not have died yesterday. Other's will have been at end of life and then contracted the virus which did not cause their death, but it was still put on the certificate. You disgust me.

Is moving in with him not an option?
Prehapes you could both apply for the same volenteer job?

Not possible since we’re a very new couple and my family doesn’t know him/his family don’t know me. I don’t think we can volunteer because I have uni and he has work.

I see mine most days. He gets tested very regularly so Ik it’s safe to but I would be seeing him anyway even if he wasn’t but maybe out and not in my house. Fines would be hard to enforce if it’s just you two they’re only really given out to large gatherings and those causing a nuisance. I say just see him but if you’re worried both get tested first and have excuses prepared incase you’re asked by police etc

Just to let u knwo the number reported are deaths within 28 days of a positive result of covid, and death certificates must be approved by doctors; no ‘others will have been at the end of life and then contracted the virus which did not cause their death’ situations should happen

Awww sorry you’re all upset for being called out for being a selfish person 🥲. I hope you get your priorities straight. I cannot be dealing with no conspiracy theorist.

My information is right- you can find online which deaths were reported when. There was a big upstreak after Christmas because of the backlog. And a patient with Covid at time of death although not necessarily causing death does get covid put on the death certificate- this has occurred with several family friends' deaths
