Will the Welsh Government confirm that the approach of assuming that it is safe to allow a proportion or section of the population to be infected by coronavirus forms no part of its policy to mitigate its effects?

The Welsh Government set out its intended approach to moving out of lockdown on Friday 15 May: Unlocking our society and economy: continuing the conversation . ‘Herd immunity’ is not part of our approach. The approach makes it clear that significant changes can only happen once the capacity to identify and shut down new outbreaks is in place and subject to making the necessary adaptations to our workplaces and public spaces.
