Coronavirus Uk, picco di 4.400 contagi in 24 ore. Si valuta il lockdown a Londra

Il Regno Unito è alle prese con una fase molto dura della pandemia, con un boom di nuovi contagi. Multe fino a 11mila euro (10mila sterline) per chi viola l'isolamento. Si pensa anche a nuove misure eccezionali per rispondere all’emergenza e tra le ipotesi non si esclude il blocco della capitale. Il ministro della Salute britannico: "Siamo a un punto critico"

Prime Minister Boris Johnson began this week to relax some of lockdown measures in order to help the economy, despite the rising death toll, but he has also stressed that great caution is needed.
