Each country decides its own policy in all matters relating to an epidemic, the WHO makes recommendations. On past performance the UK will scrupulously remain different from every other country or, if that is impossible (no option of being totally different), at least be as different as possible - but it remains to be seen.
Anyway, I read something saying scientists here were expecting a peak in around 2 weeks from now (based on Italy I think), although I'm not sure what the explanation is- maybe people are infected already without realising from before social distancing was the norm and it won't lead to death for 2 weeks. I think the big surge though will be in care homes and among elderly shoppers who still seem to be in supermarkets and on buses -some need to but I know some who don't like to be told

A total of 81,054 confirmed cases were reported, and 118 cases were suspected. A total of 687,680 close contacts were traced, and 1,071 close contacts were still in medical observation.
There were 0 new confirmed cases in Hubei (0 in Wuhan), 490 new cured cases (463 in Wuhan), 5 new deaths (4 in Wuhan), and 5224 confirmed cases (5143 in Wuhan). Among them, 1812 were severe cases (1794 in Wuhan). A total of 59,432 discharged patients (42,354 in Wuhan) were cured, 3,144 deaths (2,508 in Wuhan), and 67,800 confirmed cases (in Wuhan, 5,005).

The Western reporting of lifting of restrictions in Wuhan is more optimism than reality. They need 14 days of no new cases before the borders of Hubei Province are opened. However, some of the most restrictive rules have been lifted, allowing people to move around the city of Wuhan.

>Elderly people have to eat, ff. Why else would they go to supermarkets?
Reread what I said and work it out for yourself.
Here's an example. My son and flatmates offered to do some shopping for an elderly couple of neighbours but they had everything they needed. A few hours later he saw them get off a bus carrying a pack of toilet rolls.
