SPECULATION is growing that government could introduce tougher rules to combat Covid-19. During the third national lockdown people are required to stay indoors unless leaving for work or essential shopping. They can also meet one other person outside and exercise. But, according to the Daily Telegraph, the prime minister spoke with senior ministers on Sunday to evaluate whether the current lockdown rules were working as coronavirus case numbers – as well as the death toll – continues to soar. Tougher restrictions could include people having to wear masks in outdoor places – such as queues for supermarkets – as well as stopping people meeting one other person outside from a different bubble.
