Boris Johnson announced last month that masks, social distancing and vaccine passports might need to be brought back if the NHS comes under pressure. Ministers said the trigger point will be hospital rates now that the jabs have made case numbers less important – but they have not put a threshold on admissions. Professor Ferguson – a key Government adviser whose modelling prompted the first lockdown last March – suggested that England should not tolerate more than 1,200 daily hospitalisations. Speaking to a cross-party committee of MPs today, he said that the country was currently recording 600 Covid admissions per day. He added: ‘If that figure were to double, we’d need to think about moving to ‘Plan B’.’ The epidemiologist called for ‘more intense’ curbs if there is a sharp rise in admissions.
