Despite the fact that the UK is still affected by the rapid spread of Delta variant strains, COVID-19 infection continues to rise, but almost all epidemic prevention restrictions have been lifted. p> < p > shops reopened to welcome customers, social distance requirements were cancelled, and there was no longer a maximum number of people in public activities. In addition, masks are no longer required in most public places in the UK, with the exception of London underground, which still insists on wearing masks At the same time, the number of confirmed new crown cases in the UK has increased rapidly. According to the latest data released by the British government, the number of new cases in the past week has surged by more than 40% year on year < p > Julian Tang, a virologist at the University of Leicester, believes that the British government overestimates the effectiveness of the vaccine. He pointed out that the vaccine can not prevent all people from infection and disease, in addition, the mutant strain may also affect the effectiveness of the vaccine. He said: < / P > < p > Britain should be more careful when it is unsealed, instead of going to the designated place in one step < p > however, the British government believes that it may not be easy to postpone the lifting of restrictions again. As summer goes on and autumn approaches, the influenza virus may start to make a comeback. The new UK health secretary Javed said: < / P > < p > the UK should learn to live with the new crown, just like the flu < p > although some analysts believe that Johnson's political gamble this time is quite high, others point out that the main reason why Johnson dare to make up his mind is the high degree of vaccination in Britain < p > according to the data of the British government, 87% of the people in the UK have received at least one dose of vaccine, and two-thirds of the people have completed the full vaccination In addition, it is worth mentioning that Britain was originally scheduled to be completely unsealed on June 12, when the conservative government decided to postpone the vaccination for one month in order to speed up the promotion of vaccination < p > at the time of lifting the ban, British Prime Minister Johnson once called on the public to do a good job of epidemic prevention. He said: < / P > < p > the epidemic is not over, and caution is crucial. But now it's time (to unseal). If not, when? The promise that the epidemic will soon end has been made too many times, and any country hopes to get out of the public health crisis as soon as possible < p > in a word, the popularity of vaccination in the UK is so high that other countries have not reached the same level yet, but at present, no country has done what the UK is doing: to unseal in the face of a surge of cases How much of the British government's "gamble" has won?
