They are being daft, not you. The current rate of spread of coronavirus in the UK is a doubling every 3 days. There are now suspected to be more than 50,000 infected. Greater Glasgow and Clyde has the second highest number of cases by local authority in the UK (last time I looked).

If any of the 10 of you are carrying C19 and infect the rest, with a potential 15% fatality rate in high-risk groups, the odds that one of you will die as a result of this gathering is far from insignificant.

I suspect that as the situation has only really changed markedly over the last day or two, the less news-aware people in society have yet to catch up with what's happening. As a result, you should hopefully find that by the weekend people are suddenly changing their minds about this.
