Meanwhile, Prime Minister Boris Johnson has announced all travel corridors will close from Monday - as he called for the public to once again stay at home.
During a briefing on Friday (January 15), he said: "We must take additional steps now to stop those strains from entering the country.
"So yesterday (Thursday, January 14) we announced that we're banning flights from South America and Portugal and, to protect us against the risk of as yet unidentified new strains, we will also temporarily close all travel corridors from 0400 hours on Monday."
