Have we? Let's hope so. I admire your optimism, although to be honest, if the CMO says it's too soon, I will go with him. The simple reason I don't share your optimism is the propensity of new variants developing in those not yet vaccinated, which theoretically could undo current vaccine protection capabilities. A rise in infection rates is and will be a direct consequence of this latest run into normality. The weak and old may not be ok if an even more virulent strain emerges. Stopping the incubation and mutation of these variants will only happen when all people are immunised. That's just science. So we open up too soon and we present the virus with countless Petri dishes to change and adapt. That's why Witty spike out. He knows political expediency will prevail and wants it on record that he told them. Who to believe? A scientist whose whole life is dedicated to this, or the Tory Party and their plant Starmer? Difficult one. I hope you are right, because I too am fed up, but I counter that feeling with knowing the virus doesn't give a single fuck how I feel.
