(UTV | INDIA) – People must continue to play their part in stopping coronavirus, Boris Johnson has said, as lockdown rules ease in England, Wales and most of Scotland.
Millions of people can now socialise indoors in limited numbers, hug loved ones and visit pubs and restaurants inside again.
The ban on foreign travel has also been lifted and replaced with new rules.
But Mr Johnson said everyone still needed to be cautious, and also get tested twice a week.
“Together we have reached another milestone in our roadmap out of lockdown, but we must take this next step with a heavy dose of caution,” said the prime minister.
He added: “Everyone must play their part by getting tested twice a week, coming forward for your vaccine when called and remembering hands, face, space and fresh air.
