Out of interest, tweeked, if you feel that Brett Sutton is, as the Chief Health Officer, not qualified enough to be able to make decisions regarding public health, what qualifications do you think someone in that position should hold?

As a comparison, as a practising engineer, I make cost/benefit decision all the time, yet I have no formal accounting or economic qualifications. I also make risk analysis decisions all the time, and have no formal qualifications in that field, either.
