I don’t even want to start guessing why the PM released that doomsday model this afternoon.
But whatever her motivations, I am not in the slightest convinced by the numbers.
According to the model – designed by Shaun Hendy – even if we get 80% of us vaccinated, we will still see 7000 deaths a year from covid.
That’s 135 a week.
That will scare the living day lights out of some people.
