Coronavirus: UK told to avoid social contact in lockdown - Business Insider

British people have been told to work at home and limit all non-essential human contact over the coming months as the coronavirus spreads rapidly across the United Kingdom.

Johnson said that anyone living in a household where an individual within that household had experienced symptoms of the coronavirus should isolate themselves for 14 days. "By this weekend — it will be necessary to go further, and to ensure that those with the most serious health conditions are largely shielded from social contact for around 12 weeks," he said.

"As we advise against unnecessary social contact of all kinds, it's right that we should extend that advice to mass gatherings as well," Johnson said. "Many people, including fit and active people over 70, may feel listening to what I've just said that there is something excessive about these measures. But I have to say I believe they are overwhelmingly worth it to slow the spread of the disease, to reduce the peak, to save lives, minimise suffering, and to give our NHS the chance to cope."

Avoid travel, work from home and avoid all social contact... but go to school anyway... mixed messages that suites their agenda... I don’t trust any if it.
