Reading now: 921
Britain could be facing coronavirus lockdown restrictions throughout 2020, according to reports. It is understood government figures anticipate a gradual, slow path out of the order.
A senior figure told The Sun: “We will try a bit at a time, and then pause, so we can see what effect that has on the transmission rate.
The pace will be very gradual". The report adds that officials will assess the current lockdown that ends on May 7 before moving to a "next phase".
It is understood likely scenarios include opening schools first, possibly even after the half-term break on June 1. Another is people asked to work from home throughout the summer to avoid public transport.
