Researchers at Imperial College have found there's “no evidence” as yet that Omicron is milder than the Delta variant of coronavirus. There are concerns that the record-breaking infection levels from Omicron could lead to large numbers of people requiring hospital treatment. Professor Neil Ferguson, Head of Infectious Disease Epidemiology in the School of Public Health at Imperial College speaks to Mishal Husain about the risk Omicron poses to the UK.

California based psychiatrist Mark McDonald has recently published the book «United States of Fear». He believes that ever since Professor Neil Ferguson, at Imperial College London, published an estimate of soaring corona deaths, that debunked report has steered the world into an extreme fear narrative. McDonald observes how this has been grossly exploited by those in power, and points out how all dictators have enticed people to give up their own freedom for their own good. As a psychiatrist, he sees alarming symptoms in many of the patients, especially in children who wet the bed, lose appetite, have sleep problems and become manic. The psychiatrist also sees how people have entered a primitive tribal thinking with a fixed enemy image of “the other”, which one can not adjust with new information. He also says that in the US there is strong inflation, increased food prices and a shortage of goods in the shops.› markmcdonaldmd.com› United States of FearDownload this episodeRecorded: 2021-11-26Published: 2021-12-17

We’re offering up your money’s worth this week with a full hour of podcast excellence to be had. Toby and James open the show with a discussion of efficiently managing their time between work, family and devotion to “kicky-ball” teams like QPR, (Toby’s substack can be found here) and Team GB’s strong showing in this year’s Tokyo Games keeps us in a sporting mood as James aims for Paris 2024. Will we be well past Covid lockdowns by then? James has a birthday and gets a new suit (Can you get a new birthday suit?) and Culture Corner brings us deeper into Dostoevsky’s Crime and Punishment and Toby gives a thumbs up for A Quiet Place: Part II. This week’s opening sound is Professor Neil Ferguson on the BBC’s Today Programme.

But the Prime Minister's continuing to urge caution saying it's “very, very important we don't allow ourselves to run away with premature conclusions”.

Much to the consternation of Team Delingpole and Team Toby, our intrepid duo are back in the saddle and riding again. Like meat and potatoes, or salt and tomatoes or the Lone Ranger and Tonto, somethings just go better together. That means there’s a lot of catching up to do – from Toby’s interrupted holiday in Wales to the results of “Freedom Day 2021.” We go over the doomsday predictions of Professor Neil Ferguson, Toby’s Spectator article on footballers taking the knee and his visit to Loftus Road to watch his Queens Park Rangers take on Manchester United in a preseason friendly. Culture Corner is brief this week with James tackling That Hideous Strength (A Modern Fairy-Tale for Grown-Ups), the 1945 novel by CS Lewis and Toby catches the season opener of Ted Lasso (Apple TV).

Portugal has questioned the UK's decision to remove it from the travel green list to the amber list from Tuesday. This means UK tourists should not visit the country and returnees must self-isolate for 10 days. Travel bosses said the government is failing to stick to its own rules on warning travellers but what does the latest data suggest about the transmission of the Delta variant? Martha Kearney heard from holidaymaker Simon Smith, chief executive of Advantage Travel Partnership Julia Lo Bue, public health director in Kirklees, West Yorkshire Rachel Spencer-Henshall, Imperial College epidemiologist Professor Neil Ferguson and communities secretary Robert Jenrick MP.

Boris Johnson's former chief adviser Dominic Cummings has made a series of claims about mistakes made by the government during the Covid pandemic including an assertion that tens of thousands of people died unnecessarily due to policy failure, dithering and having no useful plan. Communities Secretary Robert Jenrick told R4 Today programme Mishal Husain he believed Mr Cummings' allegation was wrong. Mishal also heard from Labour's deputy leader Angela Rayner and Professor Neil Ferguson of Imperial College. (Image: Dominic Cummings; Credit: PRU via Press Association)
The Evening Standard's deputy political editor Nicholas Cecil joins the show to look at the impact of Dominic Cummings' appearance before MPs on the health and science select committees. The Health Secretary, Matt Hancock, has hit back against the former No10 senior adviser who on Wednesday delivered a devastating verdict on the Government's handling of the pandemic.Boris Johnson, who faced claims that he was unfit for office, denied Mr Cummings' assertion that Government failings had resulted in tens of thousands of unnecessary deaths. But Nicholas tells us two of Britain's leading coronavirus experts, Professor Neil Ferguson and Professor John Edmunds, backed up Mr Cummings's central charge against the Government, that delays over imposing lockdowns were partly to blame for the high death toll.

This week on the #Peston Podcast we're discussing:❶ Will the Indian variant prevent the final unlocking on the 21st June?❷ Why can't we go to amber list countries in Europe for our holidays given that it's no longer illegal?❸ Could Keir Starmer survive as Labour leader if they lose the Batley and Spen by-election? All this and more as we join ITV's Political Editor Robert Peston with Justice Secretary Robert Buckland QC MP, Chief Executive of Ryan Air Michael O'Leary, Imperial College London epidemiologist Professor Neil Ferguson, former Downing Street Chief of Staff Nick Timothy and Labour's Rebecca Long-Bailey MP.
Jack sits down with Britain's top epidemiologist, Professor Neil Ferguson, to discuss how the next few months of the coronavirus pandemic are likely to pan out — and why things went so badly wrong last year.Professor Neil Ferguson, the man dubbed "Professor Lockdown" explains his "fervent hope" that Britain's astonishing vaccine successes mean life can finally start getting back to something like normal in 2021, but that booster jabs and coronavirus passports may be with us for some time to come. Ferguson also recalls those frantic days in early March 2020 when it became clear Britain had got its initial response so badly wrong. And he discusses the trolls and the conspiracy theorists who attack scientists and deny the virus is even real. See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

Professor Neil Ferguson, one of the UK's leading Covid-19 experts, has resigned from the government's SAGE advisory panel after getting caught breaking his own lockdown rules. Critics say he couldn't continue in the face of accusations of hypocrisy as the general public continues to self-isolate. But how does his stepping down make the country safer? The Evening Standard's associate editor Julian Glover argues he should have held his ground , and the UK needs to accept flawed people can make good decisions. Rory Stewart has dropped out of the London mayoral race claiming pandemic restrictions in the city make it "impossible" to campaign for an already delayed election. He announced the decision with an article in the Evening Standard, and hasn't yet given any other candidate his endorsement. Our City Hall editor Ross Lydall breaks down what the move means for the rest of the runners, including how Sadiq Khan could be the one with the most to gain.

Curious about how the UK made the decision to the lock the country down? It was made using epidemiological models. One research team has been particularly influential in their response — the Imperial College team led by Professor Neil Ferguson. Their model predicted that an unchecked COVID-19 epidemic would overwhelm the NHS and result in 500,000 UK deaths. They suggested that we may need to have some form of social distancing for 12 out of the next 18 months. More recently, an Oxford University team led by Professor Sunetra Gupta published their own model. Any model on covid-19 has to make some assumptions — Imperial looked at the deaths we've had in the UK and assumed that COVID-19 hadn't infected much of the UK, but had quite a high death rate. Oxford assumed the opposite — they constructed a model which assumed that COVID-19 had infected most of the population, but had a relatively low death rate. This was picked up in news outlets such as the Financial Times — “Coronavirus may have infected half of UK population“. To find out how these types of COVID-19 models work, what their limitations are and how we should interpret them — I called up Dr James Hay — who's a computational epidemiologist at the Harvard's School of Public Health.
