Covid-19: Extension to foreign holiday ban 'not ruled out' - BBC News

We've got more now from Dr Mary Ramsay, the head of immunisation at Public Health England, who has told Andrew Marr some restrictions, such as social distancing and wearing a mask, could last for years.

“People have got used to those lower level restrictions now, and people can live with them, and the economy can still go on with those less severe restrictions in place."

“We are talking about quite a long period of time," says Dr Ramsay.

“So I think certainly for a few years, at least until other parts of the world are as well vaccinated as we are, and the numbers have come down everywhere - that is when we may be able to go very gradually back to a more normal situation.”

Asked about opening up big events, such as football matches, Dr Ramsay also says they will need "to be monitored very carefully" with some clear instructions about necessary restrictions in place.

She stresses it is “very important that we do not relax too quickly.”

The vaccine rollout means the chances of death and hospital admissions are much lower, but any circulating virus would inevitably pick up on anybody who is vulnerable.

“We have to look very carefully before any of these restrictions are lifted.”
