An Imperial College professor whose discredited computer modeling prompted Britain to lock down earlier this year is finally admitting where the inspiration behind the draconian measure originated. Hint: it s the same place the virus originated.
In a Saturday interview with the Times of London, Professor Neil Ferguson said the inspiration for the lockdown measure came from Communist China. Ferguson said he was first doubtful, then surprised to see lockdowns implemented in Europe and then the UK.
