'We' were too busy 'Eating Out To Spread It About'. The Science said beware of mutations,
A reminder for you. He said that in Feb 2020 (in my post I got it wrong as I said March ) but he actually said it on February 26 at which time the US had 60 cases. Also on the same day 26th Feb TheWHO noted that "...14 countries that have had cases have not reported a case for more than a week, and even more importantly, 9 countries have not reported a case for more than two weeks: Belgium, Cambodia, Finland, India, Nepal, Philippines, the Russian Federation, Sri Lanka and Sweden. So your attaching todays figures to what Trump said in Feb 2020 is basically fake news
Yes the EU were very quick to condemn Trump when he was calling it the Wuhan virus.But they are now quite happy to call it the Kent variant.
"...14 countries that have had cases have not reported a case for more than a week, and even more importantly, 9 countries have not reported a case for more than two weeks: Belgium, Cambodia, Finland, India, Nepal, Philippines, the Russian Federation, Sri Lanka and Sweden.
Show me where the Government scientist warned the Government not to roll out eat out to help out.
Another damning report has been released into the Government’s handling of the Coronavirus pandemic, this time revealing how ministers failed to properly utilise scientific advice.Of particular note, the Institute for Government (IfG) report states that Chancellor Rishi Sunak did not consult scientific experts before launching his ‘Eat Out to Help Out’ scheme this Summer. The discount scheme, which provided cheaper meals to people visiting restaurants, was called “epidemiologically illiterate” by experts interviewed by the IfG.

So, in 2020, Trump knew more than the assembled medical knowlege of the planet...?
I just read that article and wondered 2 things1. are these people sensibleor2. are they stupidIf they stay in Turkey for 10-11 days then legally what they are doing is fine. An extra holiday for much less than the Boris Hotel scheme but......Once they do arrive back in the UK are they doing the quarantine at home like they are meant to? I doubt it - Boris & Co need to do physical checks on 100% of people coming back to make sure they are where they state they will be staying rather than the phone call they do for most of the 10% they currently check.If they just do a couple off days and then lie about where they have been, I hope the feccers get a good hiding with the rubber hoses in the detention cells when immigration see the stamps in their passports proving they were lying.
I hear that a lot from people who are not impacted by a failing economy.
Ah OK. I thought for a minute there that you might have been suggesting that The EU's second wave was all our fault
Turkey needs to be added to the Red list as does any other sh1t hole of a country that is being used like this.
Do you think the current road map the government has for lifting restrictions is too quick, too slow or about right?
