Covid-19 tiers: Almost all of England facing tough virus rules
Most of England will be in the two toughest levels of measures when lockdown ends next week.
The new coronavirus tier restrictions will mean 55 million people are banned from mixing with other households indoors after 2 December.
Large parts of the Midlands, North East and North West, including Manchester, as well as Kent, are in tier three.
A majority of places are in the second-highest level - tier two - including London, and Liverpool city region.
The Isle of Wight, Cornwall and the Isles of Scilly - where there have been no recorded cases in the past week - will be the only areas of England in the lowest level of curbs - tier one.

Incidentally, the Tier 1 regions are those which were easiest to keep triffid-free in The Day of the Triffids.
