Professor Chris Whitty, the chief medical officer for England, and Sir Patrick Vallance, the government’s chief scientific adviser, are expected to set out the latest evidence on coronavirus tomorrow in a televised briefing on Monday.
It will come ahead of a possible news conference by Prime Minister Boris Johnson the following day.
It comes as 3,899 new UK coronavirus cases and 18 COVID-related deaths were reported by the government today.
That’s down from 4,422 cases reported on Saturday and 4,322 on Friday – which was the highest since 8 May.
