British health minister Matt Hancock on Thursday didn't rule out the possibility that university students would have to stay away from home over Christmas to reduce the spread of COVID-19 if there were widespread issues with outbreaks on campus.
"We haven't reached that point yet... I don't rule out anything," Hancock told BBC when asked about the possibility.
"We don't rule out anything. It's not something that I want to do. But what's important is that we, of course, keep people safe and keep the virus under control."
