It's claimed the UK won't be fully out of lockdown until a vaccine for coronavirus has been created.

Posting on Twitter, the British Health Minister Nadine Dorries says it's too soon to start lifting social distancing measures.

The UK government's expected to extend them for another three weeks later.

Shadow health secretary Jonathan Ashworth says he backs that, but insists ministers needs to give more details on their strategy.

"If the government don't provide clarity, then people can read things into misleading or baldy phrased tweets by junior health ministers.

"That's why we need greater clarity."
