Full range of our modelling from best, middle, to a worst case. that is what you would expect us to do. what on earth is in our interests to not tell the truth at the time we know it? unfortunately, this virus doesnt give you all of the information you want quickly enough because it takes a while for it to in debate, infect people, then it takes a while for you to get sick from the disease. what weve learnt in two years, and you cannot fail to have this in all of the interviews weve done, this v...

Saying. it has been held in davos for more than 50 years, and 3000 people also normally go every year. the last time it was held was in january 2020, it did not happen this year. of course, when it happened in january 2020, that was just as covid are starting to pick up in china. obviously things unfolded very quickly from there. so it didnt happen last year. they have been hoping it would be ok to go ahead in 2022, but we are hearing not now in january. it will be happening mid-2022. earlier we...

Over the next few weeks. at the start of this year, _ over the next few weeks. at the start of this year, hospitals - over the next few weeks. at the | start of this year, hospitals were overwhelmed at the number of covid pages since surged now back seats and booster seem to be keeping the number of deaths stable at least for the moment —— covid patients. but modelling suggests even a best case scenario for this wave could see death rising to around 600 per day. theres very little headroom f...

Think infections will get? i start by asking you how high you think infections will get?- think infections will get? i think its impossible _ think infections will get? i think its impossible to _ think infections will get? i think its impossible to predict - think infections will get? i think its impossible to predict at i think infections will get? i think its impossible to predict at thisj its impossible to predict at this time. certainly, we have been hearing from sage policy —— modellin...

To keep yourself and other people say. and there are a number of these. what is happening is that people generally come across the whole piece, in spite of everything else, most people have known what to do and have done the right thing. that is the vast majority. what you can see is a lot of people are seeing what is going on and making their own probably quite sensible decisions, do not go to that big office party, to reduce the number office party, to reduce the number of points of contact ah...

Hospitals were overwhelmed as the number of covid patients surged, now vaccines and booster seem to be keeping the number of deaths stable at least for the moment. but modelling suggests even a best case scenario for this wave could see death rising to around 600 per day. that is the backdrop to the situation and the backdrop to the cabinet meeting going on with boris johnson and his cabinet as they look how to deal with the current covid surge. i will be back in half an hour with all the latest...

Cabinets, all the policymakers, is three times worse, according to this document from the scientific advisory group for emergencies, three times worse than the worst rain weve had so far. that form of modelling, and the 200,000 deaths sajid javid talked about in parliament the other day, which i think he has retracted, looks like scaremongering to many. 1 think he has retracted, looks like scaremongering to many.- scaremongering to many. i dont think it is scaremongering. - scaremongering to man...

Modelling. talk us through what is the worst case scenario and what assumptions that is based on. the worst case — assumptions that is based on. tue: worst case scenario, assumptions that is based on. tte: worst case scenario, up assumptions that is based on. t"te: worst case scenario, up to assumptions that is based on. tte: worst case scenario, up to 6000 deaths i think a day, that is based on some pessimistic scenarios on severity rates and probably realistic interpretations of the number o...

You are going to correct me? yes. have things changed? it looks like you are going to correct me? yes, it is not modelling. _ you are going to correct me? yes, it is not modelling. although - is not modelling. although environmental modelling, it is that group, my particular area is looking at things to do with indoor spaces and ventilation, things of that nature. . ., , , nature. perfect, that is exactly what i nature. perfect, that is exactly what i was _ nature. perfect, that is exactly what ...

Implied that sage models are asked to focus on the most extreme scenarios. the omicron is incredibly virulent and they deliberately focus on the more extreme scenarios and dont do much probability waiting to different situations that occur, which calls into question a lot of the modelling. eye can see why rishi sunak, the chancellor, it was normally responsible for handing out a huge economy wrecking package to hospitality, if we have to lockdown again there might be frustration with those model...
