england's lockdown will be fully lifted on 21stjune. this morning, new data showed that about 8 in 10 adults in the uk coronavirus testing is being stepped up in areas found in india. i think we should keep things in perspective, but, clearly, as this variant is 40% more transmissible, we are more likely to see a significant increase in cases in manchester and greater manchester over the next few weeks. under new government guidance, residents are being advised to minimise travel into and out of affected areas and meeting indoors is being discouraged. the affected areas are bolton and the remaining nine boroughs of greater manchester. also to the north of the city, blackburn, as well as most of lancashire, including burnley and preston. well, this isn't the law, it is extra guidance to help people and we are asking people to use a degree of personal responsibility and good judgment, but this isn't a return to the local lockdowns, for example, that we saw last year. in bolton, extra door—to—door testing and a vaccination drive now appears to have driven down infections. the idea is to use the same tactics in those other areas now seeing a rise in cas
