Medscape notes how there is no right time for lockdown in this summary of the news. DAUK’s Samantha Batt-Rawden is quoted:

“This situation without increased measures to safeguard our NHS is simply untenable. Therefore, doctors will welcome this latest announcement today.

“It is now vital the Government now puts urgent measures in place to support NHS staff and key workers to continue to do their jobs. This includes access to transport, accommodation for those needing to live away from home during lockdown to protect vulnerable family members, and ensuring the key workers can still access supermarkets via priority slots if necessary.”
