Covid infections 'growing exponentially'

One of the experts who helped change Number Ten Covid policy in the first wave of Covid has issued a warning about the risk of easing restrictions next month.

Professor Timothy Gowers has said covid infections are 'growing exponentially and we must avoid repeating last year's mistake of acting too late.'

Sky's Health Correspondent Ashish Joshi reports.

Sky, why no article on the mass protest in London today.

I thought the most vulnerable were vaccinated so there's no reason to worry.

If people still cant see what is going on then there brain has been turned to mush and there is no hope for them.

Since the jabs clearly aren't working, why is anyone bothering with them?

[Runeinc]

They were never going to let us go back to normal were they?

[davidr]

Hold on, I thought the jabs were miracle jabs lol.

Was a lovely hot day today, so I got up, got dress in my new polo shirt, jeans, and walking sandals did my hair, and took a nice trip to the woods. Had a nice dinner outside at the local cafe, look around a few shops, then took my sandals off and had a nice barefoot walk around the field (This felt sensational), give the local ducks and birds some food. Even the lovely people I spoke to there said they are done with this and there is nothing more we can do. Let's get on with our lives and enjoy what little time we have on this planet, we will look out for each other.

No mention of the hundreds of thousands protesting in London.

[S-Ltd]

Wow, that test centre looked run of it's feet. 🤣🤣🤣

[FGC]

But, the vulnerable have now been protected? So what is the actual problem here?

[MrFiabio]

Living in fear is like dieing everyday, better dead then!

[icarus]

Interesting statement at the start, everyone in Pendle knows someone who has died of Covid, I don't know of anyone who has died of Covid and I also don't know of anyone who knows anyone who has died of Covid. I know a lot of people who have died after not receiving the treatment they would or could have got if Covid had not been prioritised.

Very keen to report that “cases” are rising but reportage about the number of increased hospital admissions in relation to the increased “cases”.

[bensmith]

Did sky news cover the protests in London? If not why not?

[earthstick]

We keep locking down and as soon as it is relaxed there is cause to lockdown again. It is not working.

Crank up or crank down the PCR test to fit the narrative..
