When such variants arrive, our best strategy - if we want to avoid another lockdown - will be 'enhanced contact tracing' as discussed with @didoharding in this week's select committee: backwards & forwards contact tracing combined with genomic sequencing of every +ve case. — PolitiTweet.org

It is clear that the biggest risk to our current strategy is the emergence of new variants that are immune or partially immune to the vaccine, a worst case scenario I asked @nadhimzahawi about today in parliament. — PolitiTweet.org

This is a big step up from the contact tracing we do & much closer to what happens in South Korea & Japan. But impossible with current high levels of transmission. Hence the critical importance of getting case levels down well below the current c 20k/day before ending lockdown. — PolitiTweet.org
