Herd immunity would have saved more lives, study claims

EDINBURGH - Herd immunity could have saved more lives than lockdown, a study from Edinburgh University has suggested.

Reanalysis of the Imperial College London modelling that led to the nationwide lockdown shows shutting schools and preventing younger people from mingling may have had the “counterintuitive effect” of killing more people, The Telegraph says.

“So when will they listen?” asks the Daily Mail’s front page, revealing that ministers are under “intense pressure” to rethink their coronavirus strategy after new research cast “fresh doubt” on Covid-19 restrictions. Meanwhile, both Metro and the Daily Mirror report on Labour’s disclosure that local lockdowns are failing.
