An extremely flawed interpretation. I’m unsurprised.

If there’s nothing positive to offer it could simply be a case of having exhausted every viable or credible option. The inherent contradiction of trying to stop variants abroad, while allowing unmitigated spread at home. Indeed, as we’ve got “immunity” the evolutionary pressure means it’s far more likely to appear in a vaccinated or population with (sometimes multiple) previous infections.

You don’t confer rights to anyone to criticise anything.

The only practical purpose of testing is to delay (in the order of hours and days rather than weeks or months). What would we do with that time? What mitigations to slow such spread once it inevitably enters our population would have political or popular support?
