British Prime Minister Boris Johnson again restricted pub patronage given a recent skyrocketing rebound of COVID-19 infections in the United Kingdom.

In a move that will personally hit the known to enjoy a drink or four British prime minister, yesterday Boris Johnson rolled out a new COVID-19 risk assessment plan that will – best case – require pub patrons to have to suffer English pub grub such as bangers and mash if they wish to hoist a pint or three as well as – worst case – potentially could suffer closure orders in high risk areas.

Additionally, the usual panoply of other restrictions were concurrently announced so as to promote social distancing.

The only potential hope for good news is that this partial shutdown order will be reviewed in a month even if it was concurrently reported that this new round of restrictions could be continued through at least Christmas.
