According to the British government, the coronavirus lockdown
in
England
will end as planned next week.
Shops, hairdressers, beauty salons and gyms could reopen from December 2nd, British Prime Minister Boris Johnson confirmed to parliamentarians on Monday.
According to the government's will,
the
four-week lockdown
will be followed by local restrictions based on a three-stage system.
The levels depend on the extent of the corona outbreaks in the respective regions.
A similar system was already in place in October;
however, the measures have now been tightened.
Scientific advisors to the government had said the October requirements were insufficient to prevent the virus from spreading further.
Residents will probably only find out how their region is classified in the course of the week.
According to the government, much of the country will be in the two highest levels.
With a

of
136
, the United Kingdom is still as affected by the pandemic as Germany (143).
