I was delighted to be given an earful by my dentist when I got into his chair last week. He told me that dental practices should never have closed during the lockdown; that dentists were skilled clinicians, used to working with PPE and quite capable of managing the risks of virus transmission.
I say I was delighted to receive his rebuke, because when I said exactly all that in the House of Commons I received a volume of vituperative correspondence telling me I was a complete ignoramus who clearly knew nothing about dentistry.
Hey ho.
