What did we learn from today’s UK briefing?

The UK daily press conference was led by Foreign Secretary Dominic Raab. He appeared without any of the government’s scientific advisers.

Here’s what he told us:

The government has provided extra money to schools to widen summer programmes for the children of key workers, who won’t be able to access their usual childcare, such as grandparents and summer schemes
He rejected the claim that information on the effects of coronavirus on people from ethnic minority backgrounds is being withheld. He said the government wanted to provide concrete advice
Mr Raab said medics and scientists will continue to attend the press briefings but did not say why none were in attendance today
