This sounds like the sensible thing to do. And a lockdown as the other poster has mentioned is quite simply out of the question. People will not respond to it in quite the same spirit as they have done this time. Indeed, just yesterday, the Culture Secretary Oliver Dowden spoke at the Press Conference and admitted that they expect compliance with any future lockdowns to be considerably less than this one and that's why they are trying to avoid this happening - they know it won't work again.
I think compliance with this lockdown has been generally less as its gone on but frankly if the death rate spikes like the current lockdown people will stay inside out of fear for the disease rather than any threat of fines the government could impose.
A lockdown this summer is unlikely and the scientists have said effective the diease should be less now, but come winter its bound to increase.
