British Prime Minister Boris Johnson
Two years after the outbreak of Corona 19 in the UK, the phase of daily recovery is 'with Corona', such as the abolition of self-quarantine and free tests for confirmed patients.
British Prime Minister Johnson announced that all legal quarantine regulations, including self-isolation, will be repealed from the day after tomorrow (24th) local time.
As a result, the self-quarantine subsidy for low-income families will be eliminated.
Prime Minister Boris Johnson said, "We advise people who have been infected to stay at home until the end of this month, but after that, it is up to those with symptoms to exercise their personal responsibility."
He added that going forward, vaccines and therapeutics will be the first line of defense against COVID-19.
Prime Minister Johnson explained the background to the abolition of quarantine regulations, saying that the pandemic is not over, but the peak of the omicron mutation epidemic has passed, and that large-scale tests are of little value.
He emphasized that quarantine regulations inflict considerable sacrifices on the economy, society, mental health, and children's lives, and that there is no need to continue to pay those costs.
