British Prime Minister Boris Johnson said on Wednesday that he would not ban Christmas family gatherings but asked people to exercise “extreme caution” against the CCP virus during the festive period.
The British government decided last month to ease CCP virus restrictions over the Christmas holidays to allow family gatherings. But as London and some other areas were moved into the highest tier of restrictions this week, some doctors criticised the plan as a “rash decision” that will “cost many lives.”
