BBC News - Covid-19: Boris Johnson plans to reopen shops and gyms in England on 12 April
Lockdown: Boris Johnson unveils plan to end England restrictions by 21 June
Shops, hairdressers, gyms and outdoor hospitality could reopen on 12 April, Boris Johnson says.www.bbc.co.uk
Wonder if they'll be supporters in for the Euros though?
We could have a situation where all social distancing measures are lifted the day before England's last game of the group stage. Pure mayhem.
Tbh I've not had a drink since this virus started, I reckon there's a fair few like me who only drink when out... Everybody will be wrecked after 2 pintsThink of all the pints that we can throw.
I fucking hope so. This ain't living.Will the most vulnerable had had the vaccine and the 2nd dose by mid march... If so then the road map looks fine... Everybody talking about another lockdown on social media, but that doesn't seem possible unless a serious unexpected mutation of the virus comes about
We should hopefully be on the way to recovery pretty soon
The government should be commended on the vaccine rollout, but people shouldn't forget the amount of unnecessary suffering caused by illogical decision making earlier on
I won't forget when I vote again
Hopefully21st June there will be no more social distancing at all? What about masks?
Life back to normal?
Loads of people on twitter moaning about pubs not opening till May.
Just surprised as lots of people were saying social distancing will be around for years etcHopefully
Fuck me bloke speaking now sounds like he's stuck in 1786
No, but yea, but noRees Mogg?
Dates can not be brought forward but could be pushed back so notBoris saying his his four-part plan will be driven by data rather than dates while giving out dates and saying its irreversible!

ExactlyYeah, this talk about another hospitalisations and deaths wave doesn’t really stand up to logic (or at least my non scientific logic)
Probably 25-30m high risk vaccinated by start April and increasing numbers receiving second doses
Those vaccinated possibly reduce transmission by up to 70%
Currently 20% population carrying antibodies (16-24 year olds ie spreaders ! it’s 25%)
Lower transmission amongst kids
Population still going to be masked up, keeping distance, washing hands etc
Maybe I’m being thick but unless there’s a vaccine resistant mutation (which could appear any time ie even after everyone’s vaccinated), where the fuck is this wave coming from ??
One dose of vaccine against Covid-19 in Scotland has cut hospital admissions by more than 85%, according to the first data to be published on the impact of the UK programme.
By the fourth week after receiving the initial dose, the Pfizer and Oxford-AstraZeneca vaccines had reduced the risk of hospitalisation from Covid-19 by up to 85% and 94% respectively, according to a study by Scottish universities and Public Health Scotland.

it probably isn't coming at all, but it makes sense to put the caveat in. Don't forget one important scientific fact, large swathes of the British public are absolute cunts.
Might wank over this. Best news we've had in a year
I still think the schools plan is a mistake. Could have mitigated by telling school leaders they can use the last 3 weeks to stagger kids in as they see fit around testing - before a full return after the Easter break. You cannot logistically test an entire secondary of 1000+ pupils twice in a week.
Staggering the kids return would be sensible IMO. The holidays abroad one is the alarm bell for me after what happened last summer. If things continue the way they have been going people will be heading off to places that are way behind us with vaccinations. Surely not a great idea.I still think the schools plan is a mistake.
