The Covid risk in Buckinghamshire has continued to decline over the last week. However, there is still a VERY HIGH risk of meeting an infected person at work, at the shops or when out and about. People still need to stay Covid-Careful, because Covid-19 has NOT gone away. We predict that around 1 in 83 people in Bucks are still infected with Covid-19.
Covid isn’t going away and there is just as much virus around as there has ever been. What is happening now is that so many people have recently had Covid that the virus is running out of new people to infect. So numbers of infected people are falling quickly, like a fire running out of fuel. But that situation can’t last long, as we explain below.
Please don’t feel safe because you have had Covid before or are fully vaccinated, or because numbers are currently going down.
Our advice remains to wear a FFP2 or N95 filter mask in public places, breathe clean air, avoid crowds and busy places, work from home if you can, and protect your older and vulnerable relatives and friends. These simple precautions will help save you and your family from serious illness or long-term disability.
