Coronavirus latest (Last updated Tuesday 30 November 2021)

It is now a legal requirement to wear a face covering in shops, hairdressers and other indoor settings, unless you are exempt, and we recommend you wear one in any crowded area.

To help keep yourself and your communities safe, please take a few simple safety measures in your day-to-day life, including to get a lateral flow test before mixing with others, and to stay home and get a PCR test if you test positive or have Covid-19 symptoms.

There are plenty of places you can now get fully vaccinated in Islington. Go to our Covid-19 vaccines webpage for more info. Thank you.
