Some people will die as a result of getting infected with Covid on Christmas Day, scientist warns – Wales Online
Professor Neil Ferguson said Christmas ‘risks some transmission and there will be consequences of that’
A scientist whose modelling led to the original lockdown in March has warned that people will die as a result of getting infected with Covid on Christmas Day.
