Matt Hancock tells @SophyRidgeSky that sunbathing in parks is not allowed, it’s “against the rules”.

The 4 reasons for going out are:
- medical reasons
- groceries
- work
- exercise

Hancock says it’s “unbelievable” that a minority aren’t following the rules.

“It’s not a request, this is a requirement in law”, he says

Matt Hancock says about 8% of NHS staff overall are off work (sick or isolating) - and says that is stable. It’s 5.7% of doctors.

“The way we get that down is to bring testing for NHS staff up”.

Rinesh Parmar of the Doctors Association says:

“We are all concerned about losing more colleagues”.
