 UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson is expected to confirm his confidence. The majority of the remaining COVID restrictions in England can be lifted in two weeks, making face masks voluntary and ending social distancing of more than one meter will be among his press conference announcements. Infections are expected to rise when rules are eased, but ministers believe deaths will be limited by vaccinations. A ffwrdd, 27,334 cases were reported across the UK on Monday, alongside another nine deaths. Will I personally wear a mask? I think that, as I said earlier on, it will depend on the circumstances. I think that what we're trying to do is move from universal government dictate to relying on people's personal responsibility. There's a big difference between travelling on a crowded tube train and sitting late at night in a virtually empty carriage on the main railway line. I would wear a mask under three situations and I would do so particularly at this point when the epidemic is clearly significant and rising. The first is in any situation, which was indoors and crowded or indoors with close proximity to other people.
