Easing of COVID-19 restrictions - Monday 19th July 2021
As of July 19th 2021, most legal restrictions preventing the spread of COVID-19 are being lifted in England.
However, coronavirus rates are high and the virus is still spreading so we all need to continue to be careful and cautious, even if we have been vaccinated.
It's recommended that:
- All adults get both doses of a COVID-19 vaccine
- If you are meeting up with people try and do so outdoors or if indoors to let fresh air in by opening doors and windows
- Everyone takes free, regular lateral flow coronavirus tests twice a week
- Everyone washes their hands regularly for 20 seconds
If you're feeling unwell:
- stay at home and immediately get a test.
- if you are contacted by NHS Test and Trace and told you have been close to someone with the virus, follow the instructions and self-isolate at home.
