Скачать или смотреть Public should be aware of ‘vaccine optimism’

Reading University’s Henley Business School Professor Rajneesh Narula says in the UK there is not a complete understanding of the mandatory mask requirement as a vaccine is still in its "early days".

Following apparently positive results for a vaccine being developed at Oxford University, Mr Rajneesh warned against becoming too comfortable and called on the public to continue following medical precautions.

“People are supposed to wear masks in all public venues…but there’s not enough enforcement going on,” Mr Narula told Sky News.

“We’re really at the point where people want to have less restrictions.

“The thing is the Oxford University trials are still at a very early stage.

“This is a bit of vaccine optimism, where everyone is watching this phase as it were.

“Everybody wants a vaccine and the idea that the vaccine will bring us back to normal.

“It is good news no doubt, but it’s early days, just phase one.”
