In his most recent press conference, Boris Johnson couldn't stop saying moonshot - but what does it mean?
During his press conference this afternoon, Boris Johnson made several references to making a 'moonshot' plan.
The Prime Minister was referring to his idea that people could be mass tested, daily, in the morning, with a test resembling a pregnancy test, and find out in '20 minutes' whether or not they're infectious with coronavirus. This would mean they could then go about their day and go to work, enter a stadium or have a big family Christmas, safe in the knowledge that no-one would give each other coronavirus.
