UK Lockdown may last until June


 

 

Boris Johnson has warned the coronavirus crisis in the UK “will get worse” before it improves in a letter sent to households across the country.

The PM also stresses the need to continue to stay indoors to support the NHS in the letter, which will land on £30million doorsteps.

It comes as Professor Neil Ferguson, director of the Centre for Global Infectious Disease Analysis at Imperial College, told the Sunday Times total lockdown could last until June.

The death toll in the UK passed 1,000 on Saturday, while more than 600,000 cases have been confirmed across the world.
