COVID-19 figures increasing again in the UK

Five days in a row, I think they said?

We need to start some restrictions now rather than full lockdown for the sake of the economy, what would you do?

I would re-lockdown pubs, I'm pretty sure that will be the biggest spreaders, failing that make it outdoor only for a few more months. I would tell the public to work from home again and to try and avoid public transport of they can.

The number of new coronavirus cases in the UK has risen by 938 across 24 hours – the highest daily increase in confirmed infections since late June, the government has confirmed.

The latest figures from the department of health and social care (DHSC) brought the total number of cases since the beginning of the UK’s outbreak to 305,623.

The daily increase in cases is the highest confirmed figure since 26 June, part of a gradual upward trend in infections since the bulk of lockdown measures were eased in early July.
