PRIME MINISTER Boris Johnson said today that England will face beefed-up tiered coronavirus restrictions until the end of March when the current national blanket lockdown ends on December 2.
Before the national lockdown, parts of England were subjected to restrictions of varying degrees: Tier 1 “medium alert,” Tier 2 “high” and Tier 3 “very high alert.”
Mr Johnson said that the new tiers would be tougher than their predecessors, and that further details for the new system will be announced on Thursday.
