THREAD: Chatting with @chrischirp about why the UK hasn’t seen Covid cases rise on the same scale as many other countries.
Has the government actually got something right? Probably not. Instead looks like Brits have decided – of their own accord – to change their behaviour 1/12
Last session today of #CIPDsuccessfulwebinars series with fab co-host @Gary_Cookson It's been a blast.

Just to be clear:
-No apology
-Confirms broken multiple lockdown rules on multiple occasions
-Drove 30 minutes with a four-year-old to "make sure he could see."
-Directly contradicts his own wife's account of their illness:

What an absolute farce this has been.
This has massively undermined the Gov's message - it's not good enough.
A totally unnecessary distraction. He needs to step back pending an investigation so we can refocus on how we get out of this mess safely.
It's wasting crucial time.

Video of a hospital in Spain. Watch it. Watch it again with the volume up.
Now cancel that brunch.
Postpone that coffee meet-up.
Rain check that dinner with friends.
Sucks doesn’t it? But not as hard as this 👇

‘At a private engagement at the end of February, Cummings outlined the government’s strategy. Those present say it was “herd immunity, protect the economy and if that means some pensioners die, too bad”.’

The social aspect is pretty important: 1) encouragement and motivation at the outset: 2) publicly committing to the new habit with a trusted group of folks/colleagues generates support, but also a healthy frisson of fear of failure; 3) seeing others stick with it 1/2 #LDInsight
... or see results reinforces the impact of the new habit; 4) seeing the collective impact of the new habits.... and I’m sure I could go on #LDinsight 2/2

1. Take your metrics, classify them into 3 purpose buckets:
Efficiency (ex CPMs)
Vanity (ex Likes, Impressions)
Effectiveness (ex Brand Lift, Profit)
2. Take your time, attribute how much analytical time is spent in each cluster.
3. If less than 50% in Effectiveness, be sad.
