I was eating bbc breakfast this morning and they interviewed an epidemiologist who stated very clearly that the vaccinations are not at all a solution to this virus, and that they will do 'nothing to stem the spread and hospital admission rates' and that the 'majority of people will not be protected from infection and its devastating effects'. She said we need 'long term policies that aim to reduce transmission'. She specifically mentioned quarantines at borders and mitigation of spread in schools long term.
I am usually a relative positive person, I dont freak easily, but am I right in saying she thinks, as an expert, that we need to live under social distancing, remote leaning, and for those of us whose family live abroad, not seeing our family for the foreseeable future? She is starting if regulations to allow us to see people are relaxed will be in this never ending cycle of transmission and death ......
Perky way to start a Sunday morning. Someone please tell me she is just being dramatic, or at the very least she isnt considering the public backlash and that eventually the government will have to give us some hope at seeing the people we love. We cant live under these restrictions forever surely.
