1/. Do you remember what you did #ValentinesDay 2020?
Prof Ferguson was warning that 400,000 Briton’s could die
Minutes from NERVTAG’s 21 Feb meeting, reveal govt scientific advisors estimated that, without action, deaths could top 1.3 million
No action was taken for a month

2/. Meanwhile, @BorisJohnson & @carriesymonds, went to stay in Chevening country house...for 12 days!
The govt claim this was a ‘working holiday’ but @JCalvertST reported that “aides were told to cut down documents or the PM just wouldn't read them”. #ValentinesDay #valentines

3/. During these 12 days in the countryside, the PM - who admitted he doesn’t read the scientific papers - missed two COBRA meetings
Instead of planning for the impact of #COVID19 he was trying to finalise his divorce
When he came back to London, the PM was winging it as usual

4/. #ValentinesDay, 2022 was two weeks after @WHO had declared #COVID19 a "public health emergency of intn’l concern”
It was 6 weeks after he had been told about #COVID
Hancock claims he’d been “sounding the alarm”
And it was 2 weeks after the PM had made his #GreenwichSpeech!

5/. We know now that the govt weren’t doing anything to prepare for #COVID19 because doing nothing was their “strategy”
The PM had indicated as much in his #GreenwichSpeech where he hinted that lockdowns would be “medically irrational”
He also talked of Britain as “Superman”

6/. Could this idea of the UK emerging into a post-COVID world as a “super-charged superman” refer to a wider long-term plan to obtain population-wide genomic data & to put genomics at the heart of the programme for govt & the economy
Isn’t this the dream of Cummings & Thiel etc
