Covid Self-Isolation Rule Could Be Scrapped This Month, Announces Boris Johnson

The law requiring people to self-isolate if they test positive for Covid could be scrapped at the end of February, Boris Johnson has announced.

Speaking at the start of PMQs on Wednesday, the prime minister said the remaining domestic restrictions could be lifted a month earlier than planned.

Johnson told MPs he would present the government’s “Living With Covid” strategy when the Commons returns from its recess on February 21.
