A couple walking in a park
It is ridiculous to suggest over 70's would rebel if they remain in lock down.
If you are a healthy over 70 you are allowed a daily exercise, if you have underlying medical problems then you should shield.
It is far harder for younger people to stick to lock down, many have children to keep amused etc.
The corona virus is more dangerous the older you get, if he advice is to continue lock down for over 70's they will do it.
