In and around a London lockdown. A Cartoon Diary by Pidge.

 For some reason the fact that the Government’s lateral testing programme which had been supported so willingly by the people of Liverpool was creating false negatives in 50% of people tested took a long time to materialise in the press in any significant way. But once the news was out it could be weaponised by others…

 Gavin Williamson’s claim that we had been the fastest to approve a vaccine because we are the best country in the world was another own goal not only indicating adolescent Trumpian characteristics but also a disregard for what should be part of a global effort, so he managed to upset other nations and worse gave ammunition to anti vaxxers who could claim that the fast track had cut corners on safety…and all for what?

 After the Government realised  that allowing three households to mix for five days over Christmas was not a good idea they for once, copied Nicola Sturgeon’s advice and advised people to not go up to the limit just because they could but this information didn’t reach all parts of the empire.
