LONDON: UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson has said that the government was planning to start easing lockdown restrictions in the country, a day after Britain became the worst-hit European state with over 32,000 deaths due to coronavirus.
According to global rankings, the United Kingdom overtook Italy to become the country with most deaths related to COVID-19 after the United States.
“We’ll want if we possibly can to get going with some of these measures on Monday. I think it would be a good thing if people had an idea of what is coming,” Johnson said while speaking in parliament for the first time after recovering from coronavirus.
