A strict lockdown in England is expected to remain in effect until mid-February. Britain’s Prime Minister Boris Johnson wants to control the highly contagious mutation of the corona virus.
Due to the significantly increasing number of corona infections, the British government has again tightened measures. “We have to impose a blockade on England in order to get the new variant of Corona under control,” Prime Minister Boris Johnson said in a televised speech Monday night. Johnson said the measures would likely remain in effect until mid-February.
“Stay at home”
“That means you have to stay home,” said the head of government. The house can only be left for necessary activities like visiting the doctor or working. Schools have to close. More recently, Britain had always announced new registries of new infections and patients.
There have been 20 percent more deaths recently, Johnson said. He mainly blamed the coronavirus mutant discovered in Britain. It is 50 to 70 percent more contagious than the previously known form. “Stay home, protect the NHS (health service), save lives,” Johnson said.
