We can't afford not to lockdown if the situation deteriorates. The public politically won't tolerate hundreds of thousands of deaths where other countries have successfully suppressed the virus and have sports stadiums open, let alone the NHS be able to cope with the circumstances that were projected when we went into lockdown the first time.

Incidentally, 'if it mutates' can equally apply to a vaccine. Why perform healthcare at all if we decide to live by the worst case scenario all the time?
