UK PM Johnson says: lockdown exit will be sensible to avoid 'reverse ferret'
- "That's the data we're having to look at and really work out what is going on," Johnson said.
- "What people don't want to see is you know just being forced into reverse - we don't want to do you know a reverse ferret - let's take it at the right pace," he said.
LONDON: British Prime Minister Boris Johnson said on Monday that the path out of lockdown would be sensible to avoid being forced into a reversal of the relaxation of measures.
Johnson, speaking to people waiting for a COVID-19 vaccine shot, said that the key question was working out to what extent a drop in infections was being caused by the vaccination programme.
"That's the data we're having to look at and really work out what is going on," Johnson said.
Asked about lifting lockdown, Johnson said: "The crucial thing is to make sure we just do sensible steps that are in proportion to where we are."
"What people don't want to see is you know just being forced into reverse - we don't want to do you know a reverse ferret - let's take it at the right pace," he said.
