'Football's coming home,' is the chant of England soccer fans at this year's Euro 2020 tournament, but with it may come COVID-19.

"Football's coming home," is the chant of England soccer fans at this year's Euro 2020 tournament, but with it may come COVID-19.

Italy has also seen coronavirus cases picking up, and epidemiologists in both countries warn that Euro 2020 might fuel its spread among younger, mainly male, adults. "The most plausible explanation is that men are having more frequent close contacts," Steven Riley, Professor of Infectious Disease Dynamics at the London university, told Reuters.

Before the semi-final, Johnson urged fans to support England"enthusiastically, but in a responsible way."
