Pubs and restaurants have opened with full service, and large gatherings are again allowed across the UK..Most of the United Kingdom further eased coronavirus restrictions on Monday, as full indoor service in pubs, restaurants and cafes is now allowed for the first time since January. In England, large gatherings are now allowed outdoors with relaxed social distancing, and masks are no longer compulsory in schools. Cinemas, theaters and sports venues can also reopen. The country has also lifted a ban on international travel, although only 12 countries and territories are on a list of permitted destinations. Rules on close personal contact have also been eased. However, officials are still urging vigilance, as the so-called Indian variant of coronavirus is circulating in the UK. "Together we have reached another milestone in our roadmap out of lockdown, but we must take this next step with a heavy dose of caution," Prime Minister Boris Johnson said in a statement. Although 70% of Britain's adult population has received at least one vaccine dose, Johnson has warned that the planned complete lifting of restrictions on June 21 could be put in jeopardy by a jump in cases.
