Yeah, his twitter username is @uksciencechief and he clarified it last night. On a related note @paulmainwood has done a thread to explain why this shows that the vaccine is working well. (Sorry can't link as using works laptop that blocks Twitter)

He is one of the scientists!

Says the ignoramus who can’t even spell Poki correctly

Talk here (NZ) that Australian (NSW anyway) Kids may not return to their classrooms until January 2022. Cases on the rise and they are well behind the 8 ball (as we are) in terms of vaccinations, so I can see that they will lock down for a month or longer and then vaccinate as many people as possible before going down the UK herd strategy come December....not sure where that leaves us in New Zealand, but I doubt we will have open borders, vaccinated or not, for at least another year.
I think we have 5 years of people being sensible before we will have a chance of normality.....wearing masks, hygiene, distancing etc.....Kids will develop immunity first......this will continue to kill old people but like the flu jab it'll drop the numbers....

All the information I quoted I saw last week. I wasn't making "points" I was sharing information. For example the data for the Pfizer booster was published in the Lancet on the 29th July.


As a published author on Covid I think I qualify to have an opinion also.
