The Prime Minister of the United Kingdom has announced that London and the South East of England will enter a new and more extreme level of Covid restrictions from tomorrow, amid fears of a rapid spread of a new coronavirus strain, with millions of Christmas plans across England canceled. Those in the fourth grade are said to be harder to stay at home and close non-essential retail and gyms and reduce restrictions on home mixing and travel. Boris Johnson announced that the five-day plan to relax at Christmas will be suspended in the rest of England. Those in levels one, two and three will be allowed to gather in most three homes only on Christmas Day. Chris Whitty the Chief Medical Officer of England and Sir Patrick Vallance the Chief Scientific Adviser of the United Kingdom attended the press conference. Boris Johnson explained that the new strain of the virus found there this week could reach 70%. more contagious than the old variant. Leaders from inappropriate UK countries have today taken part in a call to discuss the rise in cases. With these in mind, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland are also expected to tighten restrictions. ——- See more of our explanatory series here – https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLXjqQf1xYLQ6bu-iixvoFTVsiXQVlVniX
