Britain unlikely to go into another lockdown, leading scientist says
Evening Standard says the UK is unlikely to go into another lockdown as the Covid-19 situation is “fairly stable”, a scientific adviser to the government has said.
His comments come as Austria prepares to go into a full national lockdown from Monday with reports other nations could follow amid surging infection rates across Europe.
Prof John Edmunds, a member of the Scientific Advisory Group for Emergencies (Sage), said it is unlikely that the UK will follow suit.
He told Sky News: “Here in the UK, we’ve had high rates of infection for many months now and we’re in a slightly different position to Austria and Germany.
