Chris Whitty
Sir Christopher John MacRae Whitty (b. 1966) is a British epidemiologist, originally from Gloucester. He has served as Chief Medical Officer for England and Chief Medical Adviser to the UK Government since 2019. Nicknamed "Britain's Fauci",[1] Whitty supported a China-style policy of lockdown to deal with the China virus in the UK, a policy which John Hopkins University has proven to have been ineffective.[2] Despite numerous degrees in medicine and even medical law, Whitty is known for making vastly off the mark predictions.
History
In November 2013, Chris Whitty led a delegation of British academics in China with the aim of building new ties between China and the UK, and strengthening existing ones.[3]
Whitty's support for a move to allow abortion pills to be taken in the home was reported by Angelus News on 12 December 2017.[4]
Following the emergence of the Omicron variant of the China virus in December 2021, Whitty pushed claims that the variant could cause over 75000 by April 2022. As reported by The Daily Mail in January 2022, Whitty was later forced to admit this was incorrect.[5]
