Students at UK universities should not go home in the event of a CCP virus outbreak on their campus, the government said on Wednesday, as the new academic year gets set to begin.

In an announcement at Downing Street of new rules for social gatherings in England, Prime Minister Boris said that to prevent spreading the disease around the country, according to new guidance, if cases on campuses rise students must stay put and not return home.
