Watch the government's coronavirus daily public briefing.

The press conference today will be hosted by Minister for the Cabinet Office Michael Gove.

It comes as Boris Johnson has revealed "contingency plans" were made when he was seriously ill in intensive care with coronavirus.

In an interview with the Sun on Sunday, the Prime Minister says he was given "litres and litres of oxygen" in order to keep him alive.

Earlier, it was revealed that more than four in five Britons are against lockdown restrictions being eased for schools, pubs and restaurants this week.
