British Prime Minister Boris Johnson announced at a press conference on Wednesday that sanitary measures in the country have been tightened due to the spread of a new strain of the coronavirus.

It is about the recommendation to employers to transfer employees to remote work again, and about compulsory presentation of a certificate of full vaccination against COVID-19 when visiting, for example, nightclubs and some public events.

The British Prime Minister noted that the authorities cannot rely on information that the new strain is characterized by a milder course of the disease, since this is only preliminary data.
