Texas, Florida, Arizona, England

“We’re on a knife edge, it’s very precarious the situation, particularly in England at the moment, and I would anticipate we would see an increase in new cases over the coming weeks.” (Sir Jeremy Farrar of SAGE)

The warning comes after Prime Minister Boris Johnson announced a major easing of England’s lockdown restrictions, to help to reopen the economy…

Earlier, the PM told the Mail on Sunday that if the virus was a “lightning flash”, the UK is about to have the “thunderclap of economic consequences”.

(“UK ‘on knife edge’ ahead of lockdown easing, scientist warns” http://www.bbc.co.uk, 6-28-20)

Welcome to the Sun Belt, Mr. Johnson. Lockdowns were eased off prematurely here too, and it has worked a treat (for the virus).
