In this country, as across much of Europe, the virus is spreading even faster than the reasonable worst case scenario of our scientific advisers.
If we fail to take action, then there is a real risk of depriving non-Covid patients of the care that they need from the NHS (1/10)

We must take action now to protect our NHS. In England, from Thursday until the start of December, you must stay at home.
Non-essential shops, leisure & entertainment venues will be closed. Pubs, bars & restaurants must close except for takeaway and delivery services. (2/10)

Childcare, early years settings, schools, colleges and universities will all remain open. Our senior clinicians still advise that school is the best place for children to be. (5/10)

I urge parents to continue taking their children to school and am so grateful to teachers for their dedication in enabling schools to remain open. (6/10)

We will get through this - but we must act now to contain the spread of coronavirus.
While Christmas will be very different this year, it is my sincere hope and belief that by taking tough action now, we can allow families across the country to be together. (9/10)

For the next four weeks I must ask the people of this country to come together, to protect the NHS, and to save lives.

I am deeply shocked by the terrible attacks in Vienna tonight. The UK’s thoughts are with the people of Austria - we stand united with you against terror.

There is light at the end of the tunnel and we will get through this together.

Thank you to everyone in Liverpool for the fantastic response to the mass testing pilot and to all those - including our Armed Forces personnel - for helping to make this happen.
It is early days but together we can drive down the virus.

Today, as every day, we will remember them.

If and when the @pfizer & @BioNTech_Group vaccine is approved, we will be ready to start using it.
But the biggest mistake we could make now would be to slacken our resolve at such a critical moment.
We must continue to work together to protect our NHS and save lives.

Huge thanks to Kate Bingham and the Vaccine Taskforce for all their fantastic work in securing 40 million doses of the @pfizer & @BioNTech_Group vaccine and over 300 million doses of other promising vaccine candidates.
