I can't believe it. Now they are saying the transmission rate is 70% more? How did they come to that conclusion?

The first wave in July in the UK was serious enough for a total lockdown. Transmission was total. So how can it get 70% more than that critical level of the previous lockdown?

Someone is not telling the truth here. 70% greater than July? Measured how? Where is the scientific proof for this?

Yeah it does sound very weird, I'm not sure if there's a stern proof at the moment to prove this, but well experts worldwide and claiming so and to quote the article "Most new positive cases that have surfaced in the UK, especially in London, have been because of the new strain." Here's the article this excerpt is quoted from : https://www.deccanherald.com/internation...29790.html

I can't comment on the truth of the matter, but we have to our part of being more cautious. Even if the transmission rate of the virus is at par with what exists, we still have to acknowledge the fact that there are four mutated variants in circulation, and it's our responsibility to take care of ourselves. Already the new strain has been found in India, even though most international flights from the affected countries have been put to halt.

I remember that day, just a few months ago when the first case of a death caused by COVID-19 was in the news, all of us were struck to the television screens to assert the truth of the matter, people with varying comments. And now ... hundreds die everyday and their relatives, in fact, everyone stares helplessly. Don't want one more such situation with already such a chaos worldwide, we must all remember that instead of the family in the news it could be us one day, with one of our loved ones the unfortunate one. I hope you understand, it's high time we take the matter seriously and act with wisdom.
