Coronavirus: What items are considered ‘essential’ when supermarket shopping?
Reading now: 139
UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson announced new strict measures earlier this week to tackle the spread of coronavirus including only shopping for "essential items" – but what are they?
The message was stay at home, but he outlined a few exceptions where people can leave their house. He announced that Brits are only allowed to go outside for food, health reasons, and exercise once a day.
Police have the power to issue fines of £30 if people are meeting without a good reason. Mr Johnson said that people should only go out shopping for “essential items”.
Many “non-essential” shops are now closed, and only those considered “essential” are still open. So it’s fair that many may be wondering what actually constitutes as essential items.
