LONDON—British Prime Minister Boris Johnson announced a modest easing of the country’s CCP virus lockdown on May 10 and laid out the outlines of a “road map” of how further restrictions can be lifted in the coming months.
In a televised address to the nation, Johnson said that while people with jobs that cannot be done from home are being encouraged to return to work, “this is not the time, simply, to end the lockdown this week.” He said it would be “madness” to loosen restrictions so much that a second spike in cases emerges.
