Stopping flights will have zero effect
Is this the same Chief Medical Officer who thought herd immunity was a good idea? If stopping flights will have zero effect, why don't they just tell all UK based airlines to start flying again? Considering the UK will probably end up with the 2nd highest death rate in the world, is he really sure what he's talking about? One more infected person who could infect multiple others is one to many in my opinion.
