Social distancing ‘will be scrapped in England after July 19’
The Metro says Rules on wearing face masks and social distancing are set to be relaxed in England on July 19, according to reports.
It will no longer be mandatory to wear a mask in public spaces including tubes and buses but may still be recommended in high risk areas, Whitehall sources have claimed.
The one-metre rule, the rule of six and the 30-person limit on outdoor gatherings are also likely to be scrapped.
Covid cases are soaring again across England but without a corresponding rise in hospital admissions and deaths meaning ministers are ploughing on with plans to unlock the country.
