Raab: Easing of Covid lockdown does not depend on a single indicator

LONDON, Feb 17 — Steps to ease Covid-19 lockdown measures in England will not depend on any single indicator, such as case numbers, British Foreign Secretary Dominic Raab said today.

Prime Minister Boris Johnson will publish the path out of lockdown on February 22.

“The number of cases is important, and so is the R level - it is good to see the R level is below 1, there’s pressure on the NHS, there’s the rollout of the vaccine,” he told LBC radio

“There’s no single cast iron formula or one particular indicator above all other considerations that can decide this.” — Reuters
