<p>The system, similar to that used to establish the terrorist threat, will be run by a new Joint Biosecurity Centre.</p>
<p><!--Ads1--></p>
<p>The UK is currently at level four of the five-tier system, just below the “most critical” threat – the kind that would have seen the NHS swamped by coronavirus cases.</p>
<p>Boris Johnson used his address to the nation to suggest the country was now edging towards level three.</p>

<p>The further down the Covid alert level ladder the country goes, the more lockdown measures could be eased.</p>
<p>The British Prime Minister said: “We are establishing a new Covid alert system run by a new Joint Biosecurity Centre.</p>
<p>“And that Covid alert level will be determined primarily by R and the number of coronavirus cases.</p>
<p>“And in turn that Covid alert level will tell us how tough we have to be in our social-distancing measures – the lower the level, the fewer the measures.</p>
<p>“The higher the level, the tougher and stricter we will have to be.</p>
<p>“There will be five alert levels.</p>
<p>“Level one means the disease is no longer present in the UK and level five is the most critical – the kind of situation we could have had if the NHS had been overwhelmed.</p>
<p>“Over the period of the lockdown, we have been in level four, and it is thanks to your sacrifice we are now in a position to begin to move in steps to level three.</p>
