“UK in trouble” – Fears of a lockdown after Johnson raises its ‘Covid alert’ status to 4, the second-highest




There are real concerns today that further restrictions or even a lockdown could be imposed on Britain.

No restrictions or lockdowns have been officially mentioned, but the media in the UK have highlighted the fact that being in Level 4 is the closest they can get to major restrictions and even a lockdown being imposed once more.

The UK has raised its ‘Covid alert’ status to 4, the second-highest on the scale.

According to health authorities, the move follows a dramatic increase in cases involving the Omicron strain and the realization that vaccines are largely ineffective against this new variant. In other words, vaccination counts for nought.

Level 4 means that transmission of the virus is either high or rising exponentially.
