Covid, Governments and Expert Advice

I remember the good old days when government advisers advised and ministers decided whether to not to accept their advice after weighing up all the options.

If an adviser's advice was not accepted or, worse still, rejected out of hand, they have always enjoyed the honourable course of resigning.  

I haven't seen Professor Chris Whitty or Sir Patrick Vallance in the media and social media  promoting their own personal views on how best to deal with the ongoing public health emergency.  

So I wonder if Professor Sridhar is speaking on her own behalf of floating an idea on behalf of the Scottish Government's Covid-19 advisory group.
