Coronavirus is not an enemy; it is a pandemic. This is not a war; it is a crisis.

It’s interesting how some politicians like Donald Trump and Boris Johnson talk of the coronavirus as if it is a person – a cunning arch enemy with evil intent that can be defeated like the Nazis.

On his discharge from hospital today, the Prime Minister declared “We will win”.

What does winning mean when already over 10,000 have died? The crisis will end in some way – but it will not be a victory.
