Prime Minister sets out plan for living with COVID

Yesterday the Prime Minister announced that all remaining domestic Covid-19 regulations will end on Thursday by using the strong protections we have built up against the virus to safely restore people’s freedoms.

Restrictions pose a heavy toll on the economy and society, so it is right that we learn to live with this virus and continue protecting ourselves, without restricting our freedoms.

That is why the Government have announced a plan to live with Covid-19, including ending all remaining domestic Covid-19 restrictions across England on Thursday, ending the legal requirement to self-isolate following a positive test result from 1 April, and offering all adults aged over 75, all residents in adult care homes, and all over 12s who are immunosuppressed an additional booster jab.

Thanks to the vaccine rollout, the Government are now able to bring their response to Covid-19 more in line with other viruses and allow people to get back to normal while remaining protected.
