“It’s pointless trying to stop infection.” Former chairman of the UK’s vaccine taskforce Dr Clive Dix says once the booster campaign has ended we should consider a “new type of strategy” and move away from Covid rules, mass testing and vaccination.

Move to more infection, more long covid, more deaths?

So many holes in this doctor's arguement.

Most sensible thing I’ve heard since the start of the pandemic.

Why are platforming this? cathynewman did well to bring realistic perspective into the frame-doubt it was her decision to have this guy's views & opinions platformed. Headlining 'pointless trying to stop infection' undermines her good work & feeds anti-vaxxer mob.

The idea of limiting future vaccines is idiotic. Who is this fool? Yes testing is beginning to look pointless & mass infection hadn’t been stopped so that makes vaccines even more important. Apart from anything the NHS can’t cope & treat other illnesses.

Test test test there's more to come.

Ah the same man who told everyone covid would be gone last summer.

About time

So what's his new strategy, just to accept 1000s of more deaths

So says the guy who has shares in a covid therapy company.

Accept mass death & disability, to live with Covid! How about NO!

Why is this guy getting so much airtime as hospitalizations are climbing and case numbers are through the roof? A lot more people are going to die in the coming months and a large part of the UK media seem determined to play that fact down.

Tell me you’ve been involved with vaccine procurement but never spent time dealing with the world of antivaxxers and how they twist your words, without telling me you’ve never dealt with antivaxxers and how they’ll twist your words to worsen vaccine hesitancy..

Finally some common sense.

Covid: UK records more than 150,000 deathsThe UK is the seventh country to pass this number, after the US, Brazil, India, Russia, Mexico and Peru. BBCPolitics Death within 28 days of a positive test/covid mentioned on death certificate does NOT equate to people actually dying of respiratory difficulties caused by active infection. It’s actually so far away from that. Change the narrative and be honest: covid deaths are much lower. Maybe you should start holding the government to account instead of posting this self-serving drivel. 150’000 testing positive with covid why’s the narrative changed
