Coronavirus Pandemic In London

Across the UK a total of 41,903 cases of the covid-19 coronavirus have so far been confirmed, with 4,313 people having died. The country meanwhile is now nearly a fortnight into its 'lockdown', which is set to be reviewed after an initial three-week period, although an extension is widely expected. Britain's Secretary of State for Health and Social Care Matt Hancock insisted yesterday that the government's continued insistence on people staying at home to avoid spreading the virus was 'not a request', amid fears that warm and sunny weekend weather today and tomorrow could see people flout the restrictions to gather in parks and at seasides around the country.
