Professor Ashton, with his extensive practical experience and profound scholarly knowledge in the field of public health, a discipline originating in Britain, presents a scathing critique of the UK government's response to COVID-19. He asserts that the government's actions are not in line with two centuries of knowledge and are instead characterized by the implementation of untested methods at significant expense, leading to a public health and economic crisis of unprecedented proportions. Professor Ashton advocates for a swift return to the science outlined in the book "Blinded by Corona" and has applied its principles in Bahrain, where he was appointed as a special COVID-19 adviser. As a result, Bahrain achieved the top spot in the WHO league in August while experiencing minimal disruption to its economy and social life, avoiding a general lockdown.
