In a stunning interview, Professor Carl Heneghan from the Centre for Evidence Based Medicine at Oxford says:

“If you follow the New Zealand policy of suppressing it to zero and locking down the country forever, then you’re going to have a problem… This virus is so out there now, I cannot see a strategy that makes suppression the viable option. The strategy right now should be how we learn to live with this virus.

“The benefits of the current strategy are outweighed by the harms…When it comes to suppression, only the virus will have a determination in that.”
