What’s the Exit Strategy from Lock Down ? #Marr very reasonably asks Hancock

Too early to reach a conclusion on that debate says Hancock

Seriously Matt?

Looks like ducking question because of the gaping hole where a strategy should be

#Marr then goes chasing down 100,000 tests a day target/goal

Obviously increasing volume of testing is imperative. But pressing strategic issue is not pinning down latest promise but critical importance of Test ,Trace and Track capability to and effective exit from Lock Down

#Marr by chasing the latest promise is falling into trap @campbellclaret warned against- not challenging on the big strategic issue ahead

#Marr raises Trump’s reference to UK’s approach to Herd Immunity- it’s a concept if you don’t mind death- which Hancock dismisses as rubbish

Claim he will have problem substantiating . Mitigation/Herd Immunity Strategy important as still evidently driving strategy by default

And here’s a reminder of what Sir Patrick Vallance said about Herd Immunity on 13 March https://twitter.com/bbcr4today/status/1238390547783528448">https://twitter.com/bbcr4toda...

Worth watching what another Prime Minister said about the idea of Herd Immunity as a driver of strategy- here’s Jacinta Arden

‘ Herd Immunity would have meant tens of thousands dying .....would not tolerate that ‘ https://twitter.com/marieannuk/status/1244632252576907265">https://twitter.com/marieannu...

Govt says it has left Herd Immunity behind . Fine

But it needs an Exit Strategy from Lock Down . Hancock says it’s too early to reach ‘conclusion to that debate’

Here’s a great thread from @faisalislam - seen too little on our screens - on Hancock’s interview on #Marr exit from Lock Down and claim that Herd Immunity was never strategy
