Residents are being reminded to wear a face covering when they are in shops or on public transport after the Government introduced new rules to prevent the spread of the Omicron variant of Covid-19.

​The Government has made face coverings mandatory in shops and on public transport once again, unless people are exempt for medical reasons. They should also be worn in communal areas of universities, colleges and schools by staff, visitors and students in Year 7 and above.

People returning to Wolverhampton from abroad must take a PCR test before the end of the second day following their arrival and self-isolate until they get a negative test result, even if they are fully vaccinated.
