YouTube Description
as posted by the channelWhile we are all eagerly awaiting details of the Prime Minister's roadmap out of lockdown there are reports of some good news regarding care homes. Care home residents in England will be allowed one regular visitor from 8 March, as a first step in the easing of Covid-19 restrictions.
They will be able to meet indoors and hold hands, but that's all - no hugging or kissing - and all visitors must wear PPE and be tested beforehand. The health secretary said the move was a "first step" to allow more visiting. Downing Street sources say an "absolute priority" is to try and reunite families and give people more social contact as lockdown is eased.
A final meeting is expected to be held on tomorrow before Prime Minister Boris Johnson unveils his road map for easing lockdown on Monday.
One of the political voices who has been campaigning to allow care home visits is MP and Chair of the Human Rights Committee Harriet Harman. She spoke to Ayesha Hazarika about this.
