An expert has urged people to wear masks on public transport as a new Covid-19 variant is spreading across the country.
The Arcturus strain of the disease is infecting one in 40 people across the UK and it is already present in Yorkshire. Some have urged ministers to provide more vaccines to protect against the disease.
Now, Professor Griffin from the University of Leeds told the Daily Mail that people should wear high quality or N-95 masks when on public transport or in "poorly ventilated indoor spaces".
