All language subtitles for [English (auto-generated)] Media briefing on COVID-19 - Dr Mike Ryan [DownSub.com]

all regions of who have increasing cases

in this last week this is not a flat

curve this is an

increasing curve making assumptions that

transmission will not increase because

we're opening up because a vaccine is a

false assumption

transmission will increase when you open

up

because number one we don't have

vaccines in everybody and number two the

vaccine coverage rates are lower and

we're not

still sure to what extent vaccination

protects against the ability to be

infected this means

with increased transmission in the

community we then put our most

vulnerable at risk again

it's about preventing being exposed to

the virus and preventing you exposing

others

to the virus look around in your

community know the local numbers

if the virus is present in your

community and transmitting

and you're a vulnerable person and

you're not vaccinated then you are

potentially going to be exposed

so the idea that everyone is protected

and it's come by and everything goes

back to normal

i think right now is a very dangerous

assumption anywhere in the world

we would ask governments to be really

careful at this moment

not to lose the gains you've made to

open up very carefully

this virus is evolving this virus is

changing

and we need to be very very careful at

this moment so that the gains that have

been hard won

by the behaviors and action of our

population are sustained

individual behavior and government

support to that behavior

extremely important and i would urge

extreme caution

in the complete lifting of public health

and social measures at this time

because there are consequences for that
