Two former heads of the UK’s Vaccine Taskforce said Matt Hancock didn’t understand the process of biological manufacturing after new “Lockdown Files” reports revealed disagreement between Hancock and the vaccines chiefs over COVID-19 vaccines deployment.
Hancock reportedly said that Kate Bingham, who headed the taskforce between April and December 2020, was “totally unreliable,” and accused Bingham and her deputy and successor Clive Dix of blocking the government’s attempt to buy COVID-19 vaccines from India when the UK had a supply delay.
