China News Service, September 24. According to the Sing Tao Daily European version of the WeChat public account, the rebound of the new crown pneumonia epidemic in many places in Europe has intensified. Restrictive measures, including shortening the opening hours of bars and restaurants to 10 p.m., may take up to 6 months.
Johnson urged people to work from home as much as possible.
Johnson said that from the 24th, all bars and restaurants can only be open until 10 pm, when the take-out service will also stop, but the store can continue to provide take-out delivery services.
The new regulations restrict restaurants to only provide table service and avoid self-service meal collection.
According to reports, employees in the catering and retail industries are obliged to wear masks.
In addition, people who take taxis must also wear masks.
Violation of the relevant mask order will be fined 200 pounds.
Since Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland can decide their own anti-epidemic policies, the new restrictions announced by Johnson are only for England.
But it is reported that Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland will also take similar measures.
The number of guests allowed by Johnson to attend the wedding was reduced from 30 to only 15.
But Johnson also pointed out that the new restrictions "will not be like the full ban in March" and will not require the public to stay at home.
This time, shops, schools, and universities will remain open.
However, he said that if employees can work from home, they should work from home as much as possible.
Cabinet Office Minister Gove stated that he hopes that those who cannot work from home, such as those in the manufacturing, construction and retail industries, will continue to work in workplaces with proper epidemic prevention facilities.
Johnson said that these measures may be implemented for 6 months. If the basic infection rate of the virus is still not reduced, more stringent measures will be taken in the future.
