Agreed, but rather than admit that was the reasoning behind that belief, Spurrier just brushed the questioning off by suggesting they meant it was unique in its origins, not the actual strain.
I think if a person in her position starts to gauge a virus on the word of some random on their actions and not on the actual science and this leads her to suggest a full state lockdown is necessary, she should be more forthcoming in admitting she got it wrong as lots of scientists have said there was nothing unique about it.
I've been a staunch believer in her abilities but she was all over the place today and failed to give concise answers, the conduct of someone in defence mode.
I guess thats the price when science and politics collide..
