birminghammail--2020-05-31--Expert warns Covid-19 infections will rise again as lockdown lifts

A top scientist has warned that Covid-19 cases in England will certainly rise again - but the warm weather could help limit any hike .
Devi Sridhar , professor of global public health at Edinburgh University , said she feels is it “ inevitable ” that infections will climb in England when the lockdown measures are eased .
Prof Sridhar said there is now a clear divide between Government and some scientists , but added that ultimately decisions will be made by politicians .
She said : “ I think what they should be saying is they consider the science @ @ @ @ @ @ @ but the decision , and who actually has the accountability , are the politicians and leaders.
” Speaking on Sky ’ s Sophy Ridge On Sunday , she said : “ I ’ m very sorry to say that I think it is right now inevitable looking at the numbers .

`` These are institutions that need to be monitored and teachers need to be tested @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
We don ’ t have yet those , you know , monitoring systems in place.
” Prof Devi Sridhar claimed the easing of restrictions was happening too quickly .
She added : “ If your objective is to contain the virus , to drive numbers down and to try to in a sense get rid of it so no-one is exposed to it , then it is not the right measure right now to open up .
