UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson announced a lockdown on Monday. “From this evening I must give the British people a very simple instruction – you must stay at home,” Johnson said.
However, he said that people could come out for shopping for basic necessities such as food or medicine or going to work if it’s absolutely necessary and cannot be done from home. People could also come out for “one form of exercise a day – for example – a run, walk or cycle – alone or with members of your household,” or if someone (dependent) is ill and needs to be taken care of.
