– We cannot go back to a new closure, nor can we let the virus soar freely. So we’ve been following a balanced approach since June, Johnson says.

The new system means that areas of England will be classified as medium, high or very high risk of infection. A set of infection control measures is linked to each of the levels.

The average risk of infection will cover all of England, with the same restrictions they have now. This means keeping distance from each other, and restaurants must close at 22.

A high risk of infection means reducing contact between households and cohorts. People should keep their distance from each other both outdoors and in private gardens.

A very high risk of infection will apply in places with a wide spread of infection and where hospitals are under pressure. Restrictions mean that people must keep distance from each other indoors and outdoors. Restaurants and pubs must also be kept closed. But stores and schools must be kept open.

The new three-part system will be introduced starting Wednesday.

Liverpool get the strictest measures

Liverpool, which has one of the highest infection rates in the country, will be classified as a very high risk of infection on Wednesday. Liverpool has more than 600 cases per 100,000 inhabitants, writes the BBC.

Businesses like gyms and pubs are expected to be completely closed. This was stated by the Mayor of Liverpool, Steve Rotherham, on Monday morning. The restrictions are expected to apply once a month, before being reassessed.

The head of the English health service, Stephen Powis, says it will be a few weeks before they see the effect of the new measures.

The Scottish government will also introduce a three-tier system at the end of October. Similar to the one introduced in England.
