Lockdown for England
Pubs, restaurants and non-essential shops in England will close from Thursday as people are urged to stay at home, the prime minister announced on Saturday evening.
The NHS will be overwhelmed within weeks without a national lockdown in England, Boris Johnson warned, as he ordered the country to stay at home in a bid to reverse the spread of coronavirus.
The Prime Minister said that without action, deaths would reach “several thousand a day”, with a “peak of mortality” worse than the country saw during the lockdown in April.
Following his announcement, First Minister Nicola Sturgeon said: “We will carefully consider the impact of today’s announcement in England —however, we will continue to take decisions that reflect circumstances in Scotland.
“We expect to have further discussion in the coming days about the scope of additional financial support being made available.”
