• Yep,
    This FT page is free to view for me, at least,
    and the UK figure has juped up to within a couple of hundred of the Italian figure.
    As the Uk has never had a Lockdown as severe as Italy, Spain or France,
    any lessening of restrictions seems to lead directly to a second peak.

  • I would have thought the more severe the shutdown the bigger the risk of a 2nd peak. Not the otherway around at least.

    I guess the idea here beeing is that the less ppl have had previously the bigger potential growth the virus will have once the lockdown is lifted since more ppl without "immunity" will now come in contact with the virus.

  • The new relaxed rules in Spain and Italy look a lot like our "full lockdown" rules.

    If we relaxed our rules further than what they currently are there's a good chance the numbers would start going up instead of being steady / very slowly down.
