Britain needs to increase vaccination rate from 350,000 people a week to TWO MILLION and have Tier 4 national lockdown to avoid 45,000 deaths from mutated Kent coronavirus, Sage model warns - but almost 40,000 more will STILL die Members of SAGE sub-group SPI-M said the variant will infect a lot more people because it spreads faster There's no proof that it is more dangerous or deadly but more cases will inevitably lead to more deaths The variant is concentrated in London, the East and South East of England but is spreading elsewhere  Two cases of a second, potentially even faster spreading ...

Boris Johnson refuses to rule out a THIRD national lockdown after Sage model warns Britain needs to increase vaccination rate from 350,000 people a week to TWO MILLION to avoid 45,000 extra deaths from mutated Kent coronavirus The Prime Minister warned people it will 'continue to be difficult' because of the new strain of coronavirus  Members of SAGE sub-group SPI-M said the variant will infect a lot more people because it spreads faster  The variant is concentrated in London, the East and South East of England but is spreading elsewhere  Two cases of a second, potentially even faster spre...
