COVID-19: Christmas cold snap raises fears over indoor mixing and virus transmission

So not wonderful for outdoor meeting at first, and chilly thereafter, although mainly dry. There is concern it could cause some people to potentially break or stretch the rules on indoor gatherings. The virus can spread easier indoors due to poorer ventilation and confined space. Professor Bobby Duffy, director of the Policy Institute at King s College London, told Sky News that research found bad weather making it hard to meet loved ones was the top reason people gave for finding the rules harder to follow. With temperatures dropping and the number of daylight hours declining, opportunities to socialise in gardens or parks over Christmas will be even more limited, and the temptation for some to break the three-household bubble rule and see others indoors may increase, he explained.

One in three people in UK exposed to COVID-19 anti-vaccine messages

One in three people in the United Kingdom have been exposed to anti-vaccine messages, a new survey has found, as the country rolls out a mass vaccination effort to bring an end to the COVID-19 pandemic. The survey by Ipsos MORI and King s College London Policy Institute showed that 34% of respondents in the UK said they had seen or heard messages that attempted to discourage the public from getting a COVID-19 vaccine. Between the ages of 16 and 34, the percentage who had seen these types of messages rose to nearly half with 46% of respondents saying they had seen them. Experts are concerned that vaccine hesitancy and misinformation could impact efforts to end the COVID-19 pandemic. The UK was the first country to authorise the new Pfizer/BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine and recently began rolling out its immunisation programme.
