Britain Is In The Stage Of Easing Its Coronavirus Measures

Britain is in the stage of easing  its coronavirus measures. A press conference will be held on the subject.

Britain is expected to gradually stretch the measures implemented since January 2021 in order to reduce the effects of the second wave in the coronavirus epidemic. The government aims to gradually reopen international travel on Friday. Nadine Dorries, head of the Ministry of Health and Social Services, told Sky News that the roadmap for the opening is clear and Johnson will provide details on how and when the closure will be relaxed today. Dorries stated that variants of the coronavirus are still seen throughout the country, so government officials should be careful about loosening the measures taken. In England, a curfew has been imposed since January 5th, except for basic reasons and needs such as going to work, sports and shopping. In addition, bars, restaurants and cafes were closed, as well as businesses that did not sell basic products such as markets and pharmacies. While all businesses reopened on April 12, 2021, bars, restaurants and cafes were given the opportunity to offer services in their open areas. The government was expected to lift the international travel ban on May 17 at the earliest.
