Thank you.

This is the first I've read about waves of infection.

What I gleened: UK government is concerned that China may experience a second wave of infection once the isolation efforts are lifted. So the UK govt is hoping to have a single, much slower wave.

I also like this article's assessment of the UK's strategy: tough choices based on data of uncertain quality.

That is indeed a good summary, thanks!

Great summary. This should be upvoted - it covers most of the debate happening in this thread.
