Re: Coronavirus
Could we see a bolt-down in Bolton? Sensible to rule nothing out.

COVID-19: Local lockdowns can't be ruled out to curb spread of Indian variant in places like Bolton and Blackburn - Hancock

The health secretary tells Sky News he won't "rule out further action" as the India variant becomes dominant in some parts.

Health Secretary Matt Hancock has not ruled out imposing local lockdown restrictions in places worst affected by the Indian variant of coronavirus.

With a higher transmissibility than the Kent variant - which drove the UK's deadly second wave - there are fears the Indian variant could derail England's final roadmap step of lifting all restrictions on 21 June.

There have so far been more than 1,300 cases of the Indian variant found in the UK, with Mr Hancock warning it is "becoming the dominant strain" in places such as Bolton and Blackburn.
