On Tuesday, he is to announce if the hospitality sector can reopen on 4 July and if the 2m distancing rule in can be relaxed. Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland will decide on these issues separately.
• Lower-income households are using savings and borrowing more during the lockdown, while richer families are saving more as eating out and trips abroad are banned, according to research by the Resolution Foundation.
• The Children's Foundation has warned children are developing serious mental health conditions, including post-traumatic stress, because of the pandemic.
• Face coverings are now compulsory on public transport in Scotland.
• Non-essential shops are reopening in Wales for the first time since coronavirus restrictions began.

If you’ve had a coronavirus test done, you might know that the nasal swab is not exactly the most pleasant of things to go through. Although harmless, many people find it very uncomfortable to have a swab going far up their nose.

A team of researchers in Japan say they have developed a saliva test that can give a result in as little as 25 minutes.

Medical firm Shionogi said its working with Japanese universities to develop the test and that it would even allow people to take the test at home.

In the UK, there’s currently a trial for a similar saliva test underway, with more than 14,000 front-line workers taking part.

New Zealand on Monday said it was extending its ban on cruise ships arriving in the country.

"We are extending the current cruise ship ban which was due to expire on 30 June," Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern told a press conference.

New Zealand has been one of the world's most successful countries in fighting the coronavirus. It has lifted all internal restrictions but measures at the border remain.

In the early stages of the pandemic, cruise ships have often been hotbed for the virus spreading and several of them have spent weeks at sea or quarantined in a harbour before passengers were allowed to disembark.

British PM Boris Johnson is expected to announce on Tuesday whether the hospitality sector - including pubs, restaurants and hotels - can reopen on 4 July and if the two-metre (6.5ft) distancing rule in England can be relaxed.

Mr Johnson has commissioned a review into social distancing guidelines that require people to remain two metres apart.

Health Secretary Matt Hancock has said England is "clearly on track" to further ease lockdown restrictions. But No 10 warned the moves would be reversed if they led to a virus surge.

Businesses and many MPs from Mr Johnson's own party have warned that large parts of the hospitality industry won't be viable unless the rule is changed.

They're calling for the distance to be reduced to one metre, in line with World Health Organization advice and countries including France and Denmark.

In France, going to school is now compulsory from Monday for everyone up to the age of 15.

Only lycées – or high schools, which cover the last three years of school education – are not affected.

Schools have been open for several weeks, but only on a voluntary basis.

Worldwide, more men are dying from Covid-19 than women.

In Italy, China and US, for example, more men have been infected, external, and a higher proportion of men have died.

Sabra Klein, a scientist who studies sex differences in viral infections at Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health, says "being male is as much a risk factor for the coronavirus as being old, external".

But something puzzling is happening in India.

New research by a group of scientists in India and US shows that although men make up the majority of infections, women face a higher risk of dying than men.

In Scotland, face masks become compulsory on public transport from Monday as the country continues to ease its way out of lockdown.

The new rule covers buses, trains, the Glasgow Subway, Edinburgh trams, aircraft, enclosed areas onboard ferries, taxis and private hire cabs.

The Scottish government is also urging people to continue to limit travel.

Last week, First Minister Nicola Sturgeon said face coverings could "help to reduce the risk of transmission", but stressed that physical distancing, hand washing and "good hygiene" were still necessary to prevent infection.

The same rule was imposed in England a week ago, but they are not mandatory on Welsh , externalor Northern Irish, external public transport.

Latin America is the current pandemic hotspot, but confirmed cases have also been rising in India and Pakistan.

Here are four graphs to illustrate the increases, showing the number of cases per day - each country on a separate scale though.

China has reported nine new cases in Beijing over the past 24 hours.

That’s down from 22 the previous day, and the first time it has been in single figures for more than ten days.

More than 230 cases have been recorded in the recent Beijing "spike". The outbreak was linked to a large food market, and triggered lockdowns and travel bans in neighbourhoods across the city.

South Korea’s fifth largest city, Daejeon, is going back to stricter social distancing measures after clusters of coronavirus cases.

The country has actually just reported its lowest number of new infections in nearly a month, with 17 cases reported in the past 24 hours, six of them from overseas.

But officials are still concerned about sporadic outbreaks, particularly in the city of Daejeon, around 50 miles south of Seoul.

All gatherings in public spaces such as museums, sports halls and libraries have been banned. Twenty-two churches used by the Christian sect, the Shincheonji Church of Jesus, have also been closed.

The church was at the centre of the country’s biggest outbreak in February when over 6,000 members were infected.

The Seoul city mayor said he was also making preparations in case there was a second wave of the virus.

Officials are recruiting more contact tracers and securing more hospital beds in case the infection takes hold in the capital.

Infections in India increased to 410,461 on Sunday, after it added more than 15,000 new cases - the highest daily spike yet, according to Johns Hopkins University data. The country has reported 13,254 deaths so far.

India has the fourth-highest caseload in the world, after the US, Brazil and Russia.

It's been two weeks since the country eased out of its lockdown, and cases have only been rising. Some experts estimate that the virus will peak in the monsoon season, which is between July and September.

But in cities like Delhi and Mumbai, the impact of rising cases have stretched an already fragmented healthcare system.

Reports of scarce hospital beds - and patients being turned away - have been making the rounds for weeks, prompting outrage and concern.

This chart shows how the number of confirmed cases climbed to almost nine million worldwide, with Covid-19 linked deaths approaching half a million.

For confirmed cases, the growth also reflects a big increase in testing in many parts of the world.

Australia has been among the most successful places to tackle the virus – some states have gone weeks without a new case.

But a spike in infections in Victoria is providing the country's biggest concern for some time.

The south-eastern state has recorded more than 100 cases in the past week, mostly in Melbourne. Twelve of the 16 detected today were transmitted inside Australia, unlike many recently which have been infected overseas.

Victoria has extended a state of emergency declaration, re-imposed some lockdown measures, and issued warnings for six virus "hotspots".

"This is part of living with Covid-19," Prime Minister Scott Morrison told reporters today.

"There will be setbacks from time to time, but we have systems to deal with the setbacks."

The World Health Organization (WHO) has recorded the biggest one-day increase in coronavirus cases, with the Americas responsible for most of the new infections.

The WHO said more than 183,000 new cases were reported in the past 24 hours.

Most - more than 50,000 - came from Brazil, followed by the US and India.

The number of confirmed cases is partly a reflection of increased testing around the world.

Brazil has become the second country, after the US, to register more than 50,000 deaths linked to Covid-19.

The grim milestone comes amid growing political unrest, and days after the country confirmed more than one million coronavirus infections.

Experts warn that the peak of the outbreak in Brazil is still weeks away.

On Sunday, the ministry announced that 641 more deaths had been registered in the past 24 hours, taking the total to 50,617.

Only the US has fared worse, with 2.2 million cases and nearly 120,000 deaths.
