British Prime Minister Boris Johnson, who recently announced that he had tested positive for COVID-19, ordered the closure of all non-essential businesses to stop the coronavirus.

Britain already closed schools, bars and restaurants and urged people to stay home. But, while many people followed the instructions, some did not.

“We need to think about the kinds of measures that we’ve seen elsewhere, other countries that have been forced to bring in restrictions on people’s movements altogether.”

On Wednesday, the Wimbledon tennis tournament was canceled "due to public health concerns linked to the coronavirus epidemic." The oldest tennis tournament in the world, Wimbledon has been played since 1877 at the All England Club in Wimbledon, London.
