Dame Sally Davies, England’s former Chief Medical Officer (CMO) said COVID-19 lockdowns “damaged a generation” through educational interruptions.
“We have damaged a generation and it is awful as head of a college in Cambridge watching these young people struggle,” Davies said, who is now the master of Trinity College in Cambridge.
“I know in pre-schools they haven’t learned how to socialise and play properly, they haven’t learned how to read at school. We must have plans for them,” she continued.
Reporting from The Epoch Times:
There was no discussion on how to prevent diseases from getting to the UK, partly because of World Health Organisation (WHO) rules, Davis told the inquiry. “We worked on response and I do not remember a conversation about, so how do we stop it getting here,” she said, “in part because the international health regulations of the WHO, to which almost every country is signed up to, say that when a pandemic kicks off, you do not close the borders,” she said.
