Last week @RobinToal met @IndependentSAGE Chair and Founder, @Sir_David_King King to discuss the UK government response coronavirus pandemic and trust in science. With #PubsReopening in England, furthering the possibility of a #secondwave, we’re sharing the best bits. Thread ⬇️
What problems was @IndependentSage trying to solve?
The main point is that we put our advice into the government, as SAGE does, but we also put our advice into the public domain, and the object is to demonstrate how trust can be developed with the public.

Producers know that if they approach members of government, including science advisors, they always get turned down. That's not the way to get the #trust of the public. If you want the public to behave in such a way that we manage the pandemic, you have to have their trust.
"If we get this down to 20,000 & below, that's a good outcome”

These newly released SAGE documents from 29 March, show that SAGE’S Reasonable Worst Case scenario had a maximum of 50,000 direct deaths between March & Sept.
Their best scenario was 6,000.

This is a time for sober, well-informed, transparent leadership & for MPs journalists & experts to challenge govt where they go wrong.
An Inquiry in 2021? What for?
We know what went wrong & why.
We know the govt ignored warnings.
We know this not sheer incompetence/bumbling.
