He just fell in the same trap as when he was at GSK: trying to please his boss blurs his judgement. Number of victims will be higher this time.
Patrick used to change his mind all the time to please Andrew or Emma, and show poor judgment. He has just done the same, trying to please Cummings and Johnson, with detrimental results for many lives.
B Johnson, Cummings, Gove, Hancock, Vallance and Whitty wasted two weeks of key prep time pushing their theory of “herd immunity” that has now proved fatal to 10,000 in the UK.
You would think government advisors would be picked from the best. From what I am hearing Sir Patrick Vallance, UK gvt advisor on #COVID19 was an utter disaster at GSK! Why has the government chosen a failure as UK science chief? Is that why we have such a high death rate in UK?
