英国の集団免疫政策、ハーバード大の感染症の専門家にボロクソ言われている。I’m an epidemiologist. When I heard about Britain’s ‘herd immunity’ coronavirus plan, I thought it was satire | William Hanage https://t.co/qYt8ZGWbbD

The UK should not be trying to create herd immunity, that will take care of itself. Policy should be directed at slowing the outbreak to a (more) manageable rate. What this looks like is strong social distancing. Anyone who can work from home, should. People who do not yet work from home should be encouraged to do so. Employers should guarantee sick pay, including for contacts of known cases, and do everything they can to discourage the practice of “presenteeism”. You should not shake hands. Not with anyone. You should wash your hands for 20 seconds several times a day and whenever you enter your home (or someone else’s home). Call a halt to large gatherings. Educate people about masks and how they should be reserved for the medical professionals who need them. All this and more should have started weeks ago.
Deciding whether to close schools is hard; they do so much more than just education. But this is a pandemic, and so you should expect they will be shut sooner or later. In Hong Kong, they have been shut for weeks. If you hear any talking head on TV explain that kids don’t get sick, remember that doesn’t mean kids cannot be infected and transmit. It’s probably a good idea to hold off on visits to Nana and Grandpa
結局、やるべきことが
在宅勤務の奨励
病気でも頑張って働くガンバリズムの禁止
病欠手当の保証
握手の禁止
毎日２０秒間手洗い数回の励行
大きな集会の禁止
マスクは医療、介護関係者のためにあることを広報
子供は感染源になりうるから祖父母との接触も制限
いずれにせよ、こんなもんだろうね。
おもしろいのが
プレゼンティーイズムという言葉
「プレゼンティーイズム」（Presenteeism）とは、従業員が出社していても、何らかの不調のせいで頭や体が思うように働かず、本来発揮されるべきパフォーマンス（職務遂行能力）が低下している状態のこと。日本語では「疾病就業」と訳されます
これも日本特有みたいなこと言ってた出羽守いなかったっけ？
それと、
You should instead look to the example of South Korea, which, through a combination of intense surveillance and social distancing, appears to have gained some semblance of control over the virus. We can learn from South Korea, Singapore, Hong Kong and Taiwan, all of which have so far done a good job mitigating the worst outcomes despite having reported cases early in the pandemic, and in the case of South Korea, suffering a substantial outbreak.
見習うべき国として、韓国、台湾、シンガポール、香港なんだけど、日本は入っていない。
外国特派員さまのおかげだよなああ・・・・まあ、もうどうでもいいけど。
