UK seeing second COVID-19 wave, says PM Boris Johnson



LONDON: The UK is “now seeing a second wave” of COVID-19, Prime Minister Boris Johnson has said, adding: “It’s been inevitable we’d see it in this country.”

Johnson said he did not “want to go into bigger lockdown measures” but that tighter social distancing rules might be necessary, BBC reported.

It is understood a new three-tiered set of restrictions is being considered.

The plan would aim to avoid a national lockdown but could stop household-to-household contact.
