Description
Prominent Labour politicians have claimed teachers are more likely to catch Covid-19, is that true?
England’s Test and Trace programme has been widely criticised, has it raised its game in recent months? A ferocious row has broken out between scientists about how effective fast turnaround Lateral Flow tests are, and how they should be used. We examine the data.
Plus, we examine a claim from Extinction Rebellion that British butterflies have declined by 50% since 1976.
