A leading immunology expert has said that Covid is currently so prevalent in society at the moment that it’s like ‘“walking through invisible confetti” - and that won’t be the end of the spread this year.
Immunologist Professor Liam Fanning at University College Cork predicted that we will likely see another surge in Covid this winter that could coincide with a nasty flu season.
However, he said the intensity of the virus may not be as severe as last year and that in years to come, it could be treated like a cold or a simple flu with people who are infected with the virus being able to come into the workplace.
