Covid-19: Welsh Government update - BBC News
Details and reaction as the first minister warns of post-Christmas restrictions if cases keep rising.
Introducing measures in response to the pandemic is a constant “balancing act”, according to Wales' first minister.

Mark Drakeford made the comments as he was asked about the possibility of further restrictions being introduced.

Speaking to reporters, Mr Drakeford said: “I took this press conference twice last weekend and in both press conferences I was asked repeatedly whether or not we were doing too much.

“This week the question is whether we are going far enough.

“And I think that that just demonstrates that this is constantly a balancing act.

“It is constantly trying to find the right set of measures to address the issues that we are facing.

“I believe that with the restrictions that we announced last week, with the changes we are making this week in the health service, in education, in relation to outdoor attractions that we have a package of measures provided - and this is the most important part - provided in our own life, we all do those things that have the biggest effect of all, but we have to allow that package to have an impact.

“If it doesn't have it, if we don't manage to do that, then I'm signalling clearly to people today that more will have to follow.”

After announcing that outdoor attractions will be told to close Mr Drakeford provided clarification that it wouldn’t apply to Christmas markets, but rather to attractions offering entertainment.
