Europe covid cases on the rise and the ensuing lockdowns
« on: November 01, 2020, 10:19:45 AM »
British Prime Minister Boris Johnson on Saturday announced a new month-long lockdown for England after being warned that without tough action a resurgent coronavirus outbreak will overwhelm hospitals in weeks.

On the day the U.K. passed 1 million confirmed COVID-19 cases, Johnson made a sudden about-face and confirmed that stringent restrictions on business and daily life would begin Thursday and last until Dec. 2.

Thread title updated ::)
Due to the last thread getting hijacked in true DDF fashion. Starting a new thread on the topic of Europe seeing a rise in Covid cases (where many of those countries have mandated mask policies) and the lockdowns.

London imposes severe Tier 4 lockdown. Police will BLOCK people from fleeing the city by car or train, as fears over a new extremely contagious COVID-19 strain sky-rocket.

The European Commission has recommended that flight and train bans on travel from the UK should be discontinued to avoid supply chain disruptions, but “non-essential travel to and from the UK should be discouraged”

Boris Johnson Announces New National Lockdown To Last Into February

Boris Johnson has announced a new national lockdown for England - with people instructed to "stay at home" as they did during last March's first shutdown. The prime minister revealed the action in an eight-minute TV address on Monday night, after being told that COVID-19 cases are rising rapidly in every part of the country due to the new coronavirus variant. The public are being asked to follow the new rules, which replace the tiers system, from this evening.

It is expected the new lockdown in England - the third time a national shutdown has been introduced - will last until the middle of February.

Belgium has extended its lockdown until at least 1 March. That will be at least 4 months for this second lockdown that started 2 November - longer than the first.

Irish? Aren’t they a separate country that’s part of the EU? Are they referring to Ireland?
