England takes first step out of lockdown amid cautious optimism
CGTN Europe • 3m 36s
Sian Griffiths, the head of Staffordshire University's Centre for Health and Development agrees there is a danger the UK's successful vaccination program could lull people into a false sense of security, leading them to ignore the rules.
"I think people are feeling more optimistic," she told CGTN's Global Business Europe program. But, she added: "There will be close evaluation of this. There is some expectation that the numbers will increase, but there will be close monitoring, particularly for any variants.
"We have to really watch that we don't get any more variants in the population and the case numbers start to increase."
