Nottinghamshire’s health boss has made a plea to Gedling borough Residents, urging them to ‘keep going’ with coronavirus lockdown rules.
Director of Public Health for Nottinghamshire, Jonathan Gribbin put out the plea on a briefing call with the media yesterday (Friday,12).
“It’s really important that we continue to secure further reductions, because that’s what going to keep people safe,” he said.
“It would be quite understandable for anyone to report some fatigue around the lockdown rules and the hard work that it involves for individuals, households and workplaces.
“But with all the encouraging news we’re hearing around the vaccination in particular and hearing from our local health care and social care system that the very worst of the peak might be behind us, I think we need to all of us feel encouraged to keep going with these lockdown rules.
“It remains the case that that’s the way we stop transmission and that’s the way that we’ll be carried into spring in the very safest possible position.”
Figures published yesterday show that 36 new cases were reported in the borough on Friday, February 12.
