Re: Coronavirus

We all know that letting tens of thousands of people die achieves herd immunity. Indeed, Imperial College London put it at 250,000 deaths.

Nobody has disputed that the concept exists - merely the irresponsibility of achieving it by allowing the virus to spread through in an uncontrolled way.

The UK is in for a rolling period of various stages of lockdown and social isolation measures for the remainder of the year. There's no scientific rationale to deviate from this unless there is a vaccine.
