In a vacuum, I would agree. However, given that 'herd immunity' was absolutely not the approach east asian countries were going for, many of which had been battling with COVID already, and who had a great deal of experience in respiratory diseases, I think it was at best reckless. I guess the thing that bugs me is that Boris Johnson is kind of a flippant person, and that approach carried over to the response to COVID, with the weeks of head-start we got being wasted as he missed important meetings to work on a Shakespeare book, and made the whole thing out to be some kind of joke, when if he had actually being paying attention, he probably would have seen it for the deadly threat it was before he caught it (and nearly died of it).
