'From this evening, I must give the British people a very simple instruction,' Johnson said. 'You must stay at home.'
"These rules are not optional," Khan said."They are instructions put in place to prevent the spread of this virus. You must follow them."
"The quicker we can stop the spread," Hancock said,"the quicker we can get out of this. So it really is incredibly unfair of people to go and socialize in the way we've seen because in helping to spread the virus, they slow down our ability to stop it." Globally, 375,035 positive cases of coronavirus have been confirmed. While 101,554 cases are listed as recovered from the virus, 16,359 have died from coronavirus.
