One note of caution is that figure is deaths and because we have no way of measuring infection effectively we are blind on how it is transferring. The cabinet appear to only be able to focus on one thing at a time and they are being led by someone who struggles to do even that.
The stumbling block appears to be getting kids back into schools to allow parents to get back to work. The govt have known about this for months now and set out an impossible plan - half class sizes for all, no thought to amount of teachers or classrooms needed, and no rota timetables allowed. Anybody can see that can't work. It would be interesting to see how far they have thought ahead on this and are planning for extra room (portacabins for example) or some form of supply teacher plan. I'd bet good money on the plan being 'this will go away, so it'll sort itself'.
Sadly I'm beinging to think your right.
