We can’t expect to “defeat” the CCP virus, as Prime Minister Boris Johnson and many others have said we would, but need to balance the risks and manage it instead, senior Conservative party member Sir Iain Duncan Smith said.

Speaking to Christopher “Chopper” Hope on his podcast Choppers Politics, Duncan Smith said he agrees with the “focused protection” proposal laid out in a declaration, that suggests governments shield the elderlies and other high-risk groups, while allowing those who are not vulnerable to build up herd immunity.
