The alert level for coronavirus across the UK has been lowered from level 4 to level 3, the Department of Health has said.
Under level three, the virus is now considered to be in general circulation.
In a statement, the UK’s chief medical officers said: “There has been a steady decrease in cases we have seen in all four nations, and this continues.
“It does not mean that the pandemic is over. The virus is still in general circulation, and localised outbreaks are likely to occur.
“We have made progress against the virus thanks to the efforts of the public and we need the public to continue to follow the guidelines carefully to ensure this progress continues.”
