Absolute brutal and damning assessment of the UK government response to the pandemic,
and scary look into the weeks and months ahead with the crazy, nonsensical Tory 'roadmap' out of lockdown.

From the Independant Sage Group yesterday.

Whats your view on the roadmap? Too quick or too slow?

oh they’re idiots absolute idiots don’t worry about that but people saying they shouldn’t be out there doing it but turning a cheek to last weekends protests need to wake up from their slumber into being what they say they hate.

hold on you can’t pick and choose which protest are ok?

Sure Patel would like to commission a new chief of Protests under her new crimes bill.

Call that one off, allow that one.

Both sides have to accept that protests are either allowed or not allowed not just ones that suit their political agenda

I don't think any are OK under the circumstances.

I probably should have started that last paragraph with "at least".

Let's face it, we have a tentative date for the end of the lockdown.

Wish we could say the same for racism etc.

The EU were not and have not sent any vaccine to anyone. Private companies based in various European countries are manufacturing vaccine and are fulfilling orders. The fact that millions of doses of vaccine have been sent from European countries to the U.K., USA and a great many others is just a reflection on the fact that the EU was slow to order and slow to approve the vaccines. The U.K. has indeed tragically lost a great many people to this Chinese virus, however it is also saving a great number of people thanks to it developing, manufacturing and rolling out a vaccine that some European countries have done their best to undermine. The EU and EMA in this instance have at least been sensible and honest.

We have nothing to blame the EU or any of its countries for as they have no effect upon our own vaccine rollout, which will continue unabated .....

Was reading earlier, and I hope my understanding was correct, but the folk who play with this stuff reckon they have in development vaccines that will be 100% effective against death from any known variant, and are working on combining the 3 separate flu/CV jabs into one.

They also reckon that the stuff we/they have done, and what they have learnt/built, will mean another lockdown is unlikely, and future threats could be dealt with just fine.

Lady who lead the whole vax thing said, re lockdowns; "we wont need them again, as long as we continue the global surveillance of of zoonotic diseases" (bat to human for example).

Followed by.

"If we take everything we have learned from this pandemic, we should be able to deal with future viruses and avoid this (lockdown) happening again"

She is a venture capitalist in her day job, amongst other stuff. Wasnt paid a penny for her work, which she has handed over now, neither.
