Numerous people have died in China due to this disease outbreak. The outbreak has already spread to nearly 20 countries, including Russia – where at least two cases have been reported so far.

Many are worried about the future of the divorced UK. Some anticipate even a serious economic slowdown.

Meanwhile, United Kingdom Prime Minister Boris Johnson, who has played a pivotal role in the exit of the country from the economic union, has assured to take the country forward to make its future brighter.

The Brexit has come at least three years after the people of the United Kingdom voted to leave the economic union.
