In the last 24 hours, 94 thousand new corona cases have been reported here, which is two and a half times less than the 2 lakh 46 thousand corona cases detected on December 29. In addition, daily corona exposures continue to decline. In this case, the British government has now decided to withdraw the restrictions imposed in the wake of the Omigron wave. The announcement was made by British Prime Minister Boris Johnson.

“More than 90 per cent of people over the age of 60 in Britain are affected by the corona’s booster dose.

According to the government, the restrictions expire on January 26. That is, from January 27, the restrictions on citizens will no longer apply.
