Vague; wishy-washy; 'guidance'.

*Work from home if you can.
*Don't go out unless your journey is essential.
*If you have to go out, try and keep 6 feet from anybody else in the vacinity (try that if your essential journey requires a bus/train/cab journey)
*If you're feeling unwell and showing symptoms of cough/cold/sweats....'self-isolate' yourself from the rest of the folk at home and do not go out for a period of at least two weeks...etc.

@Stereoguy When this first started i wondered if they were over-playing it a bit.
But the Prime Minister's insistence on going on live tv and effectively telling people to sit tight at home for a period of three months (This is their advice for the over 70's) is scaring a lot of older folk !
"How will i get enough food in if i can't go out ?" and associated questions. All of which are fair comment since they cut funding to so many social services which would otherwise have been asked to counter this exact type of problem....

@Stereoguy If the stores could ensure sufficient supplies and limit certain items i'm sure that might work for many.
But the fact is there are Mums out there who need baby formula. There are old folk out there who need medications.
There are folk with disabilities unable to go out and shop or use online services
What do they do ?
