Lock the place down for 10 weeks and go on a massive vaccination program like a war effort. The numbers aren't that extreme even if the govt is very generous.
£500 pw for every adult - 45M * £5k = £225B
£100 pw for every child under 12 - 10M * £1k = £10B
£150 pw for every child under 18 - 9M * £1.5k = £13.5B£248.5B for a massive stimulus package that could get us to a 40%ish immunised society with 90%+ of the vulnerable and key workers immunised.
The have already spent £280B and we're not much closer to the finish line IMO

As ever, money solves - almost - anything.
If the government chuck money at the problem, people will stay home.
(They won’t do this though).
