Both the city and the county have been placed into the ‘high’ level of risk category which is effective from midnight tonight.
The new restrictions will be kept under constant review. Businesses in the city and county will remain under the same restrictions which are already in place, which includes the 10pm curfew for pubs and bars.
Schools and education settings will remain open across the whole of England, including in the city and county.
Jonathan Gribbin Director of Public Health for Nottinghamshire said: “Only by doing this can we turn the tide on these escalating numbers, prevent the vulnerable becoming ill, and stop the numbers of hospital admissions rising. This is a responsibility for every one of us.”
