A statement can be true & untrue.
“The gov needs to recognise that this isn’t just 1 big epidemic. It’s lots of outbreaks at different stages that all need to be tackled locally through local teams, local action plans so measures can be lifted over time.” theguardian.com/world/2020/apr…
I agree with that statement but I also agree that trying to do this right now is pointless because control has been lost.

But we need to be ready and trained, volunteers and all, for when effective control is regained.

For we will need it as controls are loosened gingerly
If the Gov is nutty enough to release controls swiftly and without a tight testing and tracing plan in place then we are back in Wild West second wave territory even if the outer parameters of the Oxford Study proved right.

Still not enough immunity.
Still the need to test and trace relentlessly until an effective immunity testing and also a vaccination programme for those not immune is in place.

That is the way to a recovery plan
A way out of lock down

But it needs some realism about how fast and how complete that will be
