Jen Psaki refuses to speculate WHEN the US will follow the UK in scrapping COVID restrictions because country is still 'at the height of a pandemic' but says 'we don't want to live like this... we want to get back to not wearing masks'
In an interview with Fox's America's Newsroom on Thursday, White House press secretary Jen Psaki was asked when Americans can expect a loosening of COVID restrictions
She refused to speculate on timing but conceded 'we don't want to live like this... We want to get back to the point where we're not wearing masks'
Her comments follow an announcement by the British Prime Minister that America's old ally intends to ditch all COVID laws by this spring
Rules on masks in schools and work from home guidance were ditched in England on Thursday - and from next Thursday, COVID passes and rules on masks in public places will be over
Johnson also said he expects to scrap mandatory isolation rules by end of March
The US, meanwhile, is ramping up efforts to tackle the Omicron variant, which is slowing nationwide, by announcing plans to dish out 400 million free N95 masks and finally sending out free tests to households
According to data derived from online publication Our World in Data, for every million residents, the UK has seen an average of 1,400 COVID cases per week
