Chile imposes lockdowns to fight new Covid wave despite vaccination success. While we pack our towels ready to race the Germans to the sunbeds we should look to whats happening in Chile. They have a bigger percentage of the population than us vaccinated but are still seeing a new wave of infections. New cases have risen quickly amid mixed health messaging, travel over the southern hemisphere summer holidays and the circulation of new variants. International travel still allowed, and many Chileans took advantage of cheap flights to Miami, Brazil, the Dominican Republic and other destinations.
They have now had to introduce quarantine restrictions.
THIS SHOULD BE A WARNING TO THE UK.
