She highlights the significant loss of life we have already seen, &#8220;almost 80000, an Olympic stadiums worth of people.&#8221; She questions why the lockdown currently appears to be busier than the initial one in March. Please listen to her interview for more insight.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&#8220;The emergency services cannot guarantee a normal level of response. And what we&#8217;ve been seeing has been quite terrifying, some of the figures that have been coming out. We&#8217;ve lost nearly 80000 dead. If we had to think about that as a very tragic image that would be the same number of people we crammed into the olympic stadium in 2012. An Olympic stadiums worth of people!&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&#8220;We have to ask ourselves, why are the roads still busy? Why is it busier than the lockdown in March when actually we&#8217;re in a much worse situation. We&#8217;ve also got teachers telling us that schools are busier.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&#8220;We cannot vaccinate ourselves out of this situation. Eventually we&#8217;ll be able to. But at the moment the most important thing the most the thing that needs immediate action is to stop this thing spreading in the community. And that&#8217;s what what I&#8217;m worried about because I think at the moment we&#8217;ve got lockdownlite.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dr Jenny Vaughan interviewed on LBC radio today.
