#3 He is indeed right.

We will have to find a way to live with this thing and get on with our lives, resume trade and commerce and social mixing again, even as we redouble efforts to protect the elderly.

#7 Politician-speak. He will be FOR it until something "bad" happens and then he will be AGAINST it because we "did it wrong".
