The Prime Minister has ruled out new Covid rules before Christmas but says 'we can't rule out any further measures after Christmas' as Omicron spreads fast.
No new Covid restrictions will be brought in for England before Christmas, the prime minister has said.
"But in view of the continuing uncertainty about several things - the severity of Omicron, uncertainty about the hospitalisation rate or the impact of the vaccine rollout or the boosters, we don't think today that there is enough evidence to justify any tougher measures before Christmas. Another 90,629 new Covid cases were reported across the UK on Tuesday - slightly down on the all-time highs announced last week. And a further 897,979 people received their booster jab or third dose.
