Prime Minister Boris Johnson said he understands the damage the shutdown will do to business and households. The U.K. government has tightened restrictions on the British public in a bid to contain the spread of the coronavirus in the country. As of Tuesday morning, all nonessential public buildings and places are closed, ranging from libraries to churches, outdoor gyms and playgrounds, and all social events including weddings and baptisms have been stopped. The public has been told to stay at home and can now only leave home for essential trips to buy food or medicines, to provide essential care, travel to work if absolutely necessary or to exercise once a day. On Monday evening, Prime Minister Boris Johnson told the nation in a televised address that “you must stay at home.” “Because the critical thing we must do is stop the disease spreading between households,” Johnson added. That is why people will only be allowed to leave their homes for the following very limited purposes, the prime minister said. These are: shopping for basic necessities, as infrequently as possible one form of exercise a day - for example a run, walk, or cycle - alone or with members of your household; any medical need, to provide care or to help a vulnerable person; and travelling to and from work, but only where this is absolutely necessary and cannot be done from home. Anyone not following the rules could be liable to a fine from the police, who now have the powers to enforce the measures and disperse gatherings, although it has been conceded that policing the measures will be difficult. The measures will be re-assessed in three weeks, Johnson said, and relaxed if the government can do so.
