Covid-19: 'Perfect storm' could lead to rise in London infections

London has a 'perfect storm' of factors which could lead to an increase in Covid-19 cases, public health experts have warned. The city's role as an international hub and its young, 'ethnically mixed and transient' population, could lead to rising infections, the London Assembly Health Committee heard. Covid-19 infections are rising, particularly in younger age groups. A high rate of multiple occupant homes could also contribute to the rise.
