Exercise can even boost the effectiveness of vaccines
(Picture: PA Media)Regular exercise cuts the risk of dying from infectious diseases such as Covid-19 by more than a third, according to new research.
An international team of scientists found 150 minutes a week of physical activity that gets you slightly out of breath can have a massive impact on immunity.
It suggests exercise can reduce fatalities by 37%, the danger of even catching similar diseases by 31% and boost the effectiveness of vaccines by up to 40%.
It comes after Mr Johnson acknowledged soaring cases overseas and warnings from scientists that there will be another wave this year.
