UK Hero of Covid-19 Strategies?

3 Replies

I'm not in the UK but have just had the pleasure of listening to an interview with Neil Ferguson, and then reading the paper he and his Imperial College team wrote debating Covid-19 management strategies. Basically Mitigation v Suppression thoroughly and scientifically debated.

I understand it completely altered the UK government's strategy of the time, and has definitely influenced other countries response to the virus, including New Zealand.

Now he is COVID-19 positive himself and I can only wish him complete healing.
