I would feel ungenerous if I were unwilling to run some risk of infection myself to provide my services to them.

At best, mass mail voting is a roll of the dice, calculated against the grim reality of the pandemic. If the country is lucky, the 2020 election, whoever wins, won’t be decided by a whisker.

European politicians understand their economies have been in lockdown for months already and the economic and social costs aren’t sustainable. No one thinks a big-bang reopening is feasible, but making it past the peak disaster in hospitals or avoiding excessive stress on health-care systems allows for a phased return to whatever the post-virus normal will be.
