Coronavirus – the second year

It has been more than a year since the Chinese authorities informed the WHO of the emergence of a new, rapidly spreading virus. Since then, there has hardly been a person in the world who has not heard the term Covid19, and more and more people are mourning the family member or friend with whom the new disease ended as stocks collapsed within weeks and our entire lives were rewritten. by the epidemic. By now, the vaccines have been completed, which in turn raises not only hope, but again many questions, while not only stopping the virus, but also threatening another mutation. You will find the details of this fight in our series of articles.

Due to the increasing number of coronavirus cases, the British government has decided to shut down England entirely, the BBC writes after announcing Boris Johnson. The measure will take effect on Monday at 12pm, after 50,000 new infections have been recorded in the UK on the seventh consecutive day on Monday.

The British Prime Minister has asked the British to leave their homes only for essential items and medicines, medical aid or work.

Johnson said the next few weeks will be the toughest since the outbreak broke, but added that “the fight is entering its final phase.”

Boris Johnson said daycare centers may be open, but all schools and universities will be closed, and institutions will have to switch to distance learning in mid-February for now. End-of-year exams are also not held in the summer

Outdoor sports venues, such as golf courses, tennis courts, and outdoor gyms, should be closed. Amateur team sports are not allowed, but elite sports such as the English Football Championship may continue. However, individual sports on the field are not prohibited.

Services, funerals and marriages will continue to be held, but only in limited numbers.

Restaurants can still offer home delivery, but you can’t order take out alcohol.

Due to the new mutation, we are now under greater pressure than at any time since the start of the pandemic. “

said the Prime Minister. Johnson said that while the previous version of the coronavirus has been successfully fought, the rate of spread of the new mutation is worrying, with scientists saying the new version is 50 to 70 percent more contagious. The British prime minister added that the governments of Northern Ireland, Wales and Scotland also agreed that stricter measures should be introduced.

Johnson stressed, however, that more people in the UK have already been vaccinated against the coronavirus than in other European countries combined, and the government expects everyone in the most vulnerable populations to receive the first dose of the coronavirus in mid-February.

This will allow a series of restrictions to be lifted, the British prime minister said.

Johnson said the fifth’s epidemic alert level should almost reset. According to him, if strict and restrictive measures are not taken now, the capacity of the health system could be overloaded in three weeks.
