England will lift most COVID-19 curbs

U.K. Prime Minister Boris Johnson said England was on track to lift almost all COVID-19 restrictions as planned on July 19.

The move puts the U.K. in the vanguard of countries betting that vaccines will provide a durable route back to normalcy.

Laws on social distancing, mask-wearing and other common features of the COVID-19 era are expected to be scrapped, Mr. Johnson said, with the onus instead on individuals to make their own decisions about the appropriate steps to take to stay safe and protect others.
