UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson is expected to unveil a plan for how Britain is going to battle the COVID-19 pandemic in the cold coming months during a Tuesday news conference, APA reports citing Daily Telegraph.

A senior government source told the Daily Telegraph that vaccines, rather than a new lockdown, will be central to this blueprint.

"The vaccines are a wall of defence. The autumn and the winter do offer some uncertainty, but the prime minister is dead set against another lockdown,” the source was quoted as saying.

The government insider added that coronavirus has become “the new normal” and that “we need to learn to live with COVID”.
