Other things being approximately equal, while reported cases rise (day on day) each day, R0 > 1.
This means the pandemic is not under control, is not being suppressed, is only being managed.
The revealed preference of UK Government policy is pretty much the status quo ante:
- to accept that this infection is going to run, albeit at a slower rate - reduced R0 >1
- to try to "shield" (cocoon) the elderly, pregnant and 'at risk'
- to ramp up resources (testing and contact-tracing, beds, ventilators, partial-treatments, eventually vaccination) as fast as possible.
