Coronavirus updates as they happened: Johnson 'regrets confusion' over Cummings lockdown row - BBC News
Chief aide Dominic Cummings admits to lockdown trips but says he does not regret his actions.
Sweden's Public Health Agency has published official advice on dating and sexual relationships for the first time since the start of the pandemic.

The advice came as the agency announced that the Covid-19 death toll had passed 4,000.

The agency has updated its online guidelines to state that "dating and temporary sexual relationships with new partners...pose a risk of getting infected or infecting others".

However, it advises that "closeness, intimacy and sex are good for well-being and public health" and says that for those who are in relationships "sex is no obstacle if you and your partner, or partners, show no symptoms of illness".

Last month, Denmark said that its social distancing guidelines did not extend to sexual relationships, whether serious or casual.

Sweden never had a lockdown and has kept larger parts of society open than many countries, including bars and restaurants.

However, venues have already been asked to make efforts to avoid mingling or hook-ups between strangers, for example by offering table-service only and spacing out seating.
