Professor Michie told Channel 5: “That is the behaviour of social distancing, of when you're indoors, making sure there's good ventilation or if it's not, wearing face masks, of hands and surface hygiene.

“We will need to keep this going in the long term and that will be good not only for Covid, but also to reduce other diseases”.

Asked in follow-up questions about how long she thought the measures should continue, she said: “I think forever, to some extent.”

"Michie is a member of the Communist Party of Britain and has spoken on its behalf.

She was previously a member of the Communist Party of Great Britain, reportedly since university."
