Dear Department of Health,
I’m a little confused at why politicians and members of the Department of Health keep saying there is an ‘epidemic’. My understanding of this term is that it is ‘the appearance of a particular disease in a large number of people at the same time’. Could you please clarify what you deem as an epidemic?
Yours faithfully,
David Moore
I am out of the office until 08/12/2021.
