Tej Parikh, chief economist at the Institute of Directors, said:"The coronavirus outbreak poses a significant challenge for the business community, and it is vital that the government continues providing timely and accurate guidance.

"The UK's directors are nothing if not resilient. Businesses large and small are already responding with agility, with many already taking sensible mitigating actions at this stage."However, with the prospect of orders drying up and staff in quarantine, some firms will be looking at a potential cashflow crunch, and confidence in the economy has taken a knock.

"The upcoming Budget also provides an opportune moment to lower business costs and support investment to amplify the post-outbreak recovery."Virus Outbreak: Your questions answered #AskSkyNews at 12.30pm weekdays
