elisi | Lockdown Update Day 210

In March, the Government ignored SAGE advice to lockdown. The delay is estimated to have cost 10,000s of lives.

Now they have again ignored SAGE advice to impose a "circuit breaker" lockdown, in spite of warnings of "catastrophe".

This is reckless disregard for public health.
