Exercise outside the home could be banned if people ignore coronavirus social distancing rules, the health secretary has warned.

Matt Hancock told the BBC's Andrew Marr that the government would "take action" if needed to control the virus.

It comes after reports of groups of people gathering in parks during sunny weather this weekend....

Mr. Hancock said:"If you don't want us to have to take the step to ban exercise of all forms outside of your own home, then you've got to follow the rules".

The health secretary said the vast majority were sticking to the guidelines, adding: "Lets not have a minority spoil it for everybody.".....

I’m not sure how the “Johnson regime” programs its drones taking pictures of people. Outdoor prayer is a characteristic of Islam and other religions. Israel instituted a ban on outdoor prayer in connection with coronavirus.

If there’s any wind to speak of, being outside, in open air, with others (who are not visibly sick) is PERFECTLY SAFE. Eventually the ‘experts’ will figure that out.

I guess that I need to qualify a bit, by saying that the groups do have to be relatively small, maybe up to half a dozen or so.

Only exercise in UK will be in the vicinity of a wind power generator......but be careful to avoid falling chopped up birds or bats.

LOL, but actually the wind turbines contribute to spread of Coronavirus by slowing down wind speeds around the world.

Reasonable.
A Chinese-Aussie was arrested in mainland China for refusing to follow the emergency rules while jogging.

If you want to take a walk, you’ll be safe if you put on a turban.
