Coronavirus Lockdown Eases in England, More Exercise Allowed

LONDON (AP) — Golf courses in England are reopening as part of some modest socially distanced easing of coronavirus lockdown restrictions. People in England from Wednesday can now exercise more than once a day and with one person from outside their household, provided the rule to remain more than six feet apart is adhered to. In addition, outdoor tennis and basketball courts can be used, and people will also be able to swim in lakes and the sea. Stores selling gardening supplies can also reopen, while potential house buyers can visit properties in person. And people who can't work from home, such as those in construction and manufacturing, are being encouraged to return if they can do so safely.
