$13,000 fine for breaking virus rules in England COVID19Quarantine
LONDON - People in England who refuse to self-isolate to stop the spread of coronavirus could face fines of up to £10,000 under tough new regulations announced Saturday to tackle a surge in cases.
"The best way we can fight this virus is by everyone following the rules and self-isolating if they’re at risk of passing on coronavirus," Johnson said in a statement. The new fines will start at £1,000 -- in line with breaking quarantine after international travel -- and rise to £10,000 for repeat offenses and the worst breaches, including businesses that threaten self-isolating staff with redundancy, officials said.
Almost 42,000 people who have tested positive for COVID-19 have died in Britain, the worst death toll from the pandemic in Europe."We are seeing it in France, in Spain, across Europe -- it has been absolutely, I'm afraid, inevitable we were going to see it in this country," he said.
