British Prime Minister Boris Johnson announced this Saturday a month-long national confinement for England, from next Thursday until December 2, due to the alarming data of the Covid-19 pandemic.
This measure, which puts an end to the strategy of local restrictions that the British Conservative Government had opted for, will mean the forced closure of non-essential shops and businesses, as well as all hospitality, although schools and universities will remain open.

Johnson’s announcement comes on the same day that the United Kingdom has announced that it has surpassed one million laboratory confirmed cases since the pandemic broke out, with 21,915 new positives in the last 24 hours bringing the total to 1,011,660.
