The government's chief medical adviser has said that a second spike in Covid-19 cases is inevitable if people ignore the conditions that are supposed to apply to the lockdown being relaxed

Speaking at the final Downing St press conference, Whitty said: 'It is absolutely critical people stick to the guidance that has been given. It's a changed guidance for there are still very significant restrictions socially'.

We all need to listen to our CMO and follow his advice. A great man who knows his stuff. 😊

So they’ll say it’s all our fault

This is all so worrying!!!!

Beige29 When... not if. And they know it. And they don't care.

At this stage if everyone followed the “rules”, we’ll have a second spike. And Dominic Cummings still has a job running the country.

What rules it's a disaster....

Sounds like BorisJohnson et al are gambling with people's lives

Chris Whitty is a clown. There wouldn't be a second wave if he didn't support made up advice being peddled by the tories. Lost all credibility.

Like that Dominic Cummings fella , but hey lets not mention the elephant....

Rules? One metre? Two metres,? Trips to Durham? Planning permission for second Durham house, Unlawful planning permission for Dirty Des on the Isle of Dogs What Rules?

“Government mouth-lurch blames people for government failings.”

Rules? I thought the PM called them guidance therefore exonerating the gvt from responsibility of people ignore them.

So this is what the fall guy for a clown looks like. Pity he's not got a big red nose as well.

Too late I fear

Its strange my mix race friend , who is half indian and half white like me , from mental health who is a patient and I've known since 2002 , his name Julian Day , didn't get the same treatment as me when smoked weed and bought weed off black people .

Not a good idea, if your plan/projections are based on people following the rules. Your reopening plans should be based on the fact that people will not follow the rules.

good idea but we have Trump for leader - our dumb doctor don

GitmoBound

Is that the same Chris Whitty who predicted a UK death toll of 1-2% of the population. I.e. 670k to 1.34m deaths? I will take him with a large pinch of salt.

Incompetent reporting from the Guardian does not help. The rules are still 2m, if that's not possible then 1m PLUS additional measures. This distinction not being reported in the press. Hang your head, gutter journalism

Which they will..

What new rules?

1st rule of COVID19 you don’t criticise the government 2nd rule of COVID19 is that you don’t criticise the government 3rd rule of COVID19 is something, or other have a nice day

You mean like at the protests and ve day?

People have been ignoring the rules for weeks. There’s no enforcement and the police can’t be bothered about marches or crowded beaches/parks.

Without the addition of increased public area mask wearing, the second wave is inevitable - only its magnitude remains in doubt.

Typo....new spike if people follow the new rules....280 dead in last 24 hours getrealnotpolitical

government already shifting blame on to the people SecondWave

Think he meant when...

On Gates' payroll

Saw thousands ignoring the rule, so yes there will be a spike

How convenient.

Thing I don’t think has been reported much is that the government is clearly happy with 500 odd deaths a week. They wouldn’t have eased it if they didn’t think that was a reasonable number.

It is inevitable!!
