DOMINIC Raab has warned that lockdown will be tightened again if there is an “uptick” in coronavirus infection rates.
Mr Raab told Sky's Ridge on Sunday: "We will target, if there is any uptick, and it could be in a locality, it could be in a particular setting, we will target very carefully measures that would apply to it so that we can take these steps but also keep control of the virus.", non-essential shops wil reopen from June 15 as well as restaurants and pubs set to open next month.
Professor Devid Sridhar said that a spike in cases was “inevitable” because restrictions were being lifted too fast. It's a big risk and gamble for exiting lockdown with a larger number of deaths than we did when we actually entered lockdown months backProf Sridhar told Sophy Ridge: “If your objective is to contain the virus, to drive numbers down and to try to in a sense get rid of it so no-one is exposed to it, then it is not the right measure right now to open up.
