Coronavirus: only half of UK adults 'strictly' sticking to lockdown rules

The ongoing UCL Covid-19 study, launched in the week before lockdown, now shows that 'complete' compliance of following government recommendations, such as social distancing and staying at home, has decreased in the past two weeks - declining from an average of 70 per cent of people who were 'completely' adhering to just over 50 per cent. Compliance levels among younger adults were even lower, with only 40 per cent 'completely' complying with lockdown rules.
