Lockdown restrictions are easing in England, but with a second wave ‘rolling’ across Europe and winter on the horizon, Sophie Gallagher asks if the worst is yet to come

Micheal Head, senior research fellow in global health at the University of Southampton, agrees that cases elsewhere in the world suggest the winter won’t make things worse just because it is cold. “The increasing numbers of cases across hotter countries in the tropics suggest that sunshine and humidity are probably not a big factor in terms of the transmission.”

We shouldn't be worried about the coronavirus. We should be worried about the totalitarian measures. They are attempting to roll out a technocratic dictatorship!

C. 90% remain to be infected!!! Sounds like a problem any season.

Not worried at all

Not just covid-19...others are coming like the deadly flu !

Wait till it gets here you surmising you know again, which you dont, been stuck inside my front door for 21 weeks,which you couldn't even quess whats that like, so my worry at mo is farting and following thro.

Very very very but what about christmas i hope its not cancelled ive bought the crackers all ready ,im elderly

Very.

Should be more worried about the response from the government,it’s not the virus that’s killing the economy it’s the human response

No

Nothing says winter like a barely dirtied-up mask tossed to the ground on bone-dry pavement.

Very

There is feck all to worry about

more worried about the hysteria the media promote and to which the govt react to Covid19 covid19uk KBF

In all honesty it’s not winter anyone should be worried about. It’s obvious COVID-19 isn’t seasonal. It’s the stupidity and selfishness of the population that we should all worry about.

The same nothing should change until next year still wear a mask and still keep six feet if you can. We will also will be wearing more clothes on which it can live longer

Not worried at all. The only damage will come from our tinpot dictators as they shut down the economy. Millions will lose jobs for what will end up as a normal number of deaths. KBF

This rag is embarrassing

I'm not worried about it now. Winter is after the election anyway.
