The priority is to get the country back to normal as soon as possible, Sajid Javid says, as he takes on the job of health secretary.

Javid says he has "a lot of work to do" as he starts work on tackling the coronavirus pandemic.

The former chancellor replaces Matt Hancock who resigned after breaching coronavirus social distancing guidelines.

The Sun newspaper showed pictures of him kissing colleague Gina Coladangelo.

In his exit statement, Hancock said: "We owe it to people who have sacrificed so much in this pandemic to be honest when we have let them down."

The PM did not sack him but said he was "sorry" to receive his colleague's resignation.

The Department of Health will look into how the footage from Matt Hancock's office leaked, Northern Ireland Secretary Brandon Lewis says.

The Australian state of New South Wales reports 30 new Covid cases on the second day of Greater Sydney's two-week lockdown.

God only knows and I doubt you'd find any politician willing to give a truthful answer.

The UK government have promised a full public enquiry for next year so maybe an answer or two will be forthcoming then.

New Health Secretary Sajid Javid says he wants coronavirus restrictions lifted as soon as possible and irreversibly.

Javid is to update MPs later on plans for lifting the last restrictions in England, scheduled for 19 July.

The reopening was pushed back from 21 June amid rising cases of the Delta variant - but a progress review is taking place.

Labour has called for an probe into ministers' use of private email addresses following claims made after Matt Hancock's resignation.

The Federation of Small Businesses urges the government to give more support in light of delays to the planned lifting of rules.

Sydney's Delta variant outbreak grows to 128 cases, with other infections recorded in the Northern Territory, Queensland and Western Australia.

AstraZeneca and Oxford University begin trials of a modified vaccine to act against the Beta variant, first identified in South Africa.

The UK defence secretary and several senior military officers are self-isolating after the head of the armed forces tested positive.

Wimbledon returns after last year's cancellation - initially with a 50% capacity crowd as one of the events taking part in a government pilot.

Thousands of German tourists in Portugal are in a rush to get home before midnight tonight after Germany said it is imposing new quarantine restrictions on people returning from the country because of rising cases of the Delta variant.

Mask-wearing across Italy is no longer compulsory outdoors as every region in the country enters the "white zone".

Health Secretary Sajid Javid has updated MPs on the planned ending of England's lockdown.

He confirms that the final stage in ending the lockdown remains 19 July.

Javid says: "My task is to help return the economic and cultural life of this country"

He says that by 19 July two thirds of adults will have had both coronavirus jabs.

He said that while cases were rising, the number of deaths "remains mercifully low"

The UK has recorded 116,287 cases in the past seven days - a 70% increase on the previous week's total.

"For me 19 July is not only the end of the line but the start of an exciting new journey for our country," Javid tells MPs

Labour has called for a probe into ministers' use of private email addresses following claims made after Matt Hancock's resignation.

The former health secretary will not take the severance payment he would normally be entitled to as a departing cabinet minister.

Sydney's Delta variant outbreak grows to 128 cases, with other infections recorded in the Northern Territory, Queensland and Western Australia.

AstraZeneca and Oxford University begin trials of a modified vaccine to act against the Beta variant, first identified in South Africa.

Two nude sunbathers in Australia have been fined for breaching Covid rules after they got spooked by a deer and had to be rescued from bushland.

The men, who were sunbathing on a beach south of Sydney, were found after they called for assistance.

They were fined A$1,000 (US$750; £547) for breaching a public health order banning those in greater Sydney from travelling outside the area.

"It's difficult to legislate against idiots," NSW Police Commissioner Mick Fuller said at a press conference on Monday when speaking about the incident.

Notice that the nude sunbathers still managed to keep their cell phones so they could call for help.

Big scary deer comes at you while you're illegally tanning your pale covid lockdown patootie and what do you go for? Your skivvies or your cell phone? No time to think, choose now! Here it comes!

Cause of Long Covid possibly found. Bloodcells get altered and change physical genotype. Study's conclusions published by scientists of the Max-Planck Institute in Erlangen.
