As scientists issue warnings, Edward Argar says the variant could be more – or less – transmissible
The government is acting “cooly” and “calmly” to tackle the coronavirus variant first found in India as social distancing measures are further eased on Monday, the health minister Edward Argar has said.
At a press conference on Friday, the prime minister said he would press ahead with allowing indoor gatherings of six people or two households in England from next week, though the final stage of lifting restrictions in June could face “serious disruption”.
