UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson is appealing for caution as Britain continues to register low number of Covid-19 cases. Infection rates have dropped for six consecutive days. UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson called for caution Tuesday after Britain registered nearly a week of lower coronavirus case numbers, a decline that has surprised officials and experts. The prime minister argued that Britain's successful vaccination campaign - which has fully vaccinated 70 percent of adults -- allowed for the relaxation of legal curbs last week. But, echoing Johnson's call for caution, he added: "I would be surprised if we are likely to see a continuation of this decline."
