Curbs on normal life may need to continue through the summer and into the autumn in order to avoid progress being"wasted," England's Deputy Chief Medical Officer Jenny Harries said on Sunday.Harries suggested that while lockdown rules imposed last week could be relaxed once the curve of cases begins to flatten, strict social distancing guidelines will likely remain in place.
Johnson and his health minister, Matt Hancock, are also both in self-quarantine after testing positive for Covid-19 last week. England's Chief Medical Officer Professor Chris Whitty said Friday he is following the same protocol after developing symptoms, though he had not been tested.None of the three officials were present at Sunday's daily briefing, at which Harries delivered her stark warning about the length of the restrictions.
