Britain learns to treat coronavirus like flu

Prof Chris Whitty

Up to 25,000 people die in a bad flu year without anyone noticing, 2017 -2018

Every year, somewhere between 7,000 and 9,000 citizens die of flu

most of them very elderly

Accepting some Covid deaths, the price of a whole life

Royal School of Medicine webinar

Government, pull the alarm cord because of dangerous now VOC

Covid is not going to go away

You’ve got to work out what’s a rational policy to this and here I would differentiate quite a lot between a
pandemic environment and what you get with seasonal flu

So it is clear we are going to have to manage it, at some point, rather like we manage the flu.

Here is a seasonal, very dangerous disease that kills thousands of people and society has chosen a particular way round it.

Society would not tolerate lock down to prevent flu type numbers

We want to get as close as we can [to zero] but the question is how do you balance that against other priorities?

What are people prepared to put up with

Flu appears to be optional

We need to work out some balance which actually keeps it at a low level,

minimises deaths as best we can, but in a way that the population tolerates,

through medical countermeasures like vaccines

and in due course drugs,

which mean you can minimise mortality while not maximising the economic and social impacts on our fellow citizens

Lockdowns would be reimposed if cases rose? No, I don’t think so

Impossible to prevent variants from coming into the UK

We have to accept the idea that stopping variants coming to the UK is not a realistic starting point,

but you can slow it down

    Slots, Tischspiele und Live-Casino-Optionen. Diese
    Liste ist eine wertvolle Ressource für Spieler, die sicherstellen möchten, dass sie in einem sicheren und regulierten Umfeld spielen. Es ist daher von größter Wichtigkeit, nur in lizenzierten Online Casinos zu spielen, um die Sicherheit Ihrer Daten und die
    Fairness der Spiele zu gewährleisten.
    Online Casinos können viel mehr Casinospiele als Spielotheken und Spielbanken anbieten. Wählen Sie aus über 1.600 verschiedenen Spielautomaten, klassischen Casinospielen,
    Lotterien und Arcade Games der besten Hersteller.

    Dies ist sinnvoll, da Spielautomaten bei weitem die beliebteste Art von Online Casinospielen sind.
