FWIW, a few thoughts on the importance of testing. As far as I can see, there are broadly 4 different arguments for testing. The first is both urgent and important. Virus infection (‘antigen’) testing will help get self-isolating key workers who don’t have CV back to work. /1 — PolitiTweet.org

@ActuaryByDay @ONS Is it possible to project from now likely death rates in absence of Covid? Based on recent years + demographic changes (growing elderly population) + frailty effect given low number of winter deaths? Could provide a useful baseline. Or are the numbers just not that predictable? — PolitiTweet.org

@ActuaryByDay @ONS To what extent are winter deaths linked to how cold it is? (Does a mild winter explain the numbers?) And, in normal years, if there are lower than average number of deaths in Jan/Feb does that tend to mean higher than average in later months? (And vice versa?) Many thanks. — PolitiTweet.org

At some point in the next few weeks we may have a new divide in society. Some may have been tested & have Covid immunity, but most won’t. How do we make best use of those who’ve got the green light? And what are the wider implications? https://t.co/6P7R0yj5oE — PolitiTweet.org

Lots of talk about how the coronavirus crisis will be like WW2 & afterwards they’ll be greater appetite for higher spending & borrowing. But from 1948-9 onwards, Attlee’s Government had big Budget surpluses. #ExtraordinaryBorrowingIsForExtraordinaryTimes https://t.co/6P7R0yj5oE — PolitiTweet.org

And there are some tasks that don’t need to be done by humans at all. Over-crowded tube trains because drivers sick/self-isolating. The technology is there for these trains to be driverless. — PolitiTweet.org

Once we’re through this, we’ll need to think more about making public services more resilient to future pandemics. That isn’t about throwing money at it but about reform. In schools, GP surgeries & prison visits we need to be able to move more easily to non face-to-face contact. — PolitiTweet.org

In the introduction of Real Time Information in the PAYE system has given HMRC more options in helping the employed. If Making Tax Digital has been further advanced, I suspect that would’ve made dealing with the self employed administratively easier. — PolitiTweet.org
David Gauke @DavidGauke
Rightly, lots of focus on the NHS. But officials in HMRC and DWP being asked to do extraordinary things and it looks like they’re delivering. Thinking about how we cope if this happens again, further progress in using digital technology will be important. — PolitiTweet.org

The crisis creates many operational challenges. Politicians and journalists tend to focus on what, why and who. But the most important question at the moment is usually how. Not every problem has a perfect answer because of operational challenges. That’s hard to communicate. — PolitiTweet.org
