The UK may be ahead of its European neighbors in vaccinating its population, but the Brits could face “many years” if public health experts find their way.
New cases of Covid-19 in the UK have dropped tenfold since early January, and more than 27 million Britons – more than half of the adult population – have received the first dose of the coronavirus vaccine. Compared to the growing number of cases on the continent and the average vaccination rate in the European Union is around 10%, the UK seems to be winning its battle against Covid-19.
The Brits, however, wanting to be totally free from the country’s punitive lockdown cannot hold their breath.
That’s according to Mary Ramsena, head of immunization at Public Health England. Rams told the BBC on Sunday that masks and social distance were necessary “Many years,” Or “At least until then we are vaccinated as we are in other parts of the world, and the numbers have come down everywhere.”
Vaccines are being distributed unevenly around the world, and since people in poorer countries have had to wait years for vaccinations, should the British government listen to their advice, Ramsay’s prediction may be real.

As a government body, Public Health England certainly has a say in determining the UK’s Covid-19 response. His vote is not even a minority. As the government plans to ease sanctions from the end of March, the UK government’s chief medical adviser, Prof. Chris Whitty told lawmakers earlier this month “Simple Interventions,” Between them will need a face mask, summer outdoors. Sir Patrick Vallans, chief scientific adviser, meanwhile, suggests that masks will be needed during the winter to avoid “Bounce” In new cases.
Ramsay claimed “People Are Addicted” Wearing a mask and practicing social distance, he tells the BBC “People can stay with them, and the economy can still move forward with less control in that place.”
However, the public may not be as consistent as she suggests. Police in riot gear stormed a rally on Saturday, removing hundreds of protesters by truck. Police in riot gear stormed a rally on Saturday, removing hundreds of protesters by truck.
