Ten weeks ago, Sage warned No.10 about mutant #COVID19 strai
Three weeks ago, @YvetteCooperMP asked @BorisJohnson what the UK was doing to stop the #SouthAfricanVariant
The PM didn’t have an answer
We need answers from the secretive #JointBiosecurityCentre

On 21 Sept, SAGE warned UK faced a “very large epidemic with catastrophic consequences” without immediate action
But PM & @RishiSunak weren’t at that meeting
Instead, they were meeting anti-lockdown scientists Anders Tegnell, Prof Heneghan & Prof Gupta! dailymail.co.uk/news/article-8…

In December, the PM was asked why the country wasn’t in lockdown
“The Tier decisions aren’t for me,” Patrick Vallance replied
In a system seemingly designed to ensure the buck stops with no one, decisions are made by the secretive #JointBiosecurityCentre

In July 2020, just as #Singapore was starting to open up after the #CircuitBreaker, the National Research Foundation of Singapore decided to fund projects that would look at life in the new normal - opening up while mitigating #COVID19
2/ I was then working @CREATE_NRF, with Berkeley Education Alliance for Research in Singapore (#BEARS) and we were fortunate enough to be funded for our idea
3/ "AUTOMATED DECONTAMINATION OF WORKSPACES USING UVC COUPLED WITH OCCUPANCY DETECTION"
The idea was, UVC can harm occupants but over the past years, occupancy sensing has also improved by leaps and bounds

1 - The fact that the govt ignored SAGE's advice on #circuitbreaker lockdown doesn't come as a big surprise as SAGE has been increasingly sidelined since the setting up of the #JointBiosecurityCentre in July
The JBC is part of the "NHS" Test and Trace Service run by @didoharding

2 - The #JointBiosecurityCentre runs the govt's #COVID19 response
Set up in May, it was originally headed by Tom Hurd (MI6)
He was replaced by Clare Gardiner (GCHQ)
This suggests it sits within UK intelligence structures
Over the last 6 months, the JBC has released no minutes

3 - Whilst little is known about the staffing & membership of this body, sources suggest that there is no "centre"
Instead, they say, the #JBC is scattered across offices in Whitehall & beyond, including intelligence agencies & research institutes

Matt Hancock says “we are currently at alert level 3” pointing at the government’s own chart which shows level 3 means we should be “relaxing restrictions & social distancing measures”!

Marr asks how many people are being tested at the moment?
@MattHancock says the “capacity” is 250,000
#Marr asks again about people tested
Hancock says: “Ystdy 226,000” people were tested for coronavirus”
Really Matt?
Is there any ‘evidence’ of this?

Matt Hancock says “the public must follow the rules”
Whilst the majority do so through “a sense of civic duty” he says “there’s a minority who don’t follow them”
#Marr: Would you call the police on a neighbour who's failing to self-isolate?
Hancock: Yes

Betapa legowo nya mereka membeberkan data bahwa ada kenaikan sejumlah ini.. dan mencari tahu bagaimana cara menanggulanginya @blogdokter #circuitbreaker #circuitbreakersg #COVID2019
Dan sudah waktunya kita tanya kisi-kisi ke Vietnam, ko bisa mereka 0 kematian sampe sekarang dan nyaris 3,5 hari tanpa penambahan kasus baru. @blogdokter
