Dominic Raab warns lockdown will be tightened again if there is ‘uptick’ in coronavirus infection rates

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.

But let’s open schools and shops to add to it! 🙄

Idiots

What twat thought it was a good idea to open beaches how can people social distance no common sense wat so ever close the beach COVID19

I don't believe they will lockdown again, no matter what happens. Money is too important to them, that's why they're rushing everything now.

Solution...... close the beaches. Job done.

I think they are making a mistake letting the lockdown ease, it should be done gradually and with caution, people will take advantage of the situation which could make things worse

I’m looking forward to the end of lockdown, I haven’t been out , but these idiots might bring back lockdown again, would you say that’s fair

Perhaps they should do it before ingections and deaths get to the point of being out of hand again. Lots of bristish citizens have proven they cant be teusted to use common sense. This time tho police it better and make fines count fpr something not be laughed at

I wonder if DominicRaab knew this was his peak, because he’s cocking it up royally at the moment!

🤣🤣 as if anyone will listen to BorisJohnson MattHancock DominicRaab again after arrogance of Dominic Cummings. This gov has more or less lost all public support. NHS

Tell him to do one

As if anyone will do as the government says now. They’ve caused all of this.

DominicRaab DomonicCummings BorisJohnson MattHancock These idiots have created herd immunity stance. The gov easing lockdown and Cummings alienating the public. Clever plan by them. They can now blame US ? Disgusting.

Still per day death rate in 1 million population in UK is among highest or even the highest in Europe. I'm really surprised 2 see some peoples careless attitude whereas majority of us sacrifice our economical, emotional or even normal life due to lock-down. Shame on COVIDIDIOTS

Looking at the picture there is going to be an uptick in herpies cases rather than Corona 🥰😚

this comes to mind bit of sun = beach

Just a matter of time

'Dominic Raab must resign or be sacked': Harry Dunn's parents on their long fight for justiceThe teenager died last August after being hit by a car whose driver has yet to face charges. His parents won’t stop asking why Sorry for their loss, but their anger is misplaced, and is cashing in on their grief for a few extra clicks. I am sympathetic to their cause but do they really believe buffoon Johnson would sack Raab when Johnson refused sack the lying SPAD for breaking lockdown rules? Seems more like a marketing campaign in the style of the McCanns which may get headlines but deliver little else. I don’t care what they think 🤷🏾
