Covid-19: Government plans to spend £100bn on expanding testing to 10 million a day

"However, on the basis of what is presented here, this looks less like Apollo 11, which took Neill (sic) Armstrong to the moon successfully, and more like Apollo 13."

As no-one died on Apollo 13, a better comparison is surely the Apollo 1 mission, where three astronauts died while testing a capsule with numerous faults that never got off the ground.
