Chat about Novel Coronavirus - 2019-nCoV - COVID-19

Ok so I checked here again

And the plan for the delay stage is

The Delay phase – next steps If the disease becomes established in the UK, we will need to consider further measures to reduce the rate
and extent of its spread. Based on experience with previous outbreaks,
it may be that widespread exposure in the UK is inevitable; but
slowing it down would still nonetheless be beneficial.

For example, health services are less busy in the summer months when
flu and other winter bugs are not driving GP consultations and
hospital admissions. In the 2009 ‘swine flu’ pandemic school holidays
significantly slowed transmission of the virus.

We will increase publicity about the need for good hygiene measures
(hand washing, and catch it, bin it, kill it) and further promote the
need for people with symptoms to stay at home for the full duration of
their illness.

Other action will be considered to help achieve a Delay in the spread
of the disease. We will aim to minimise the social and economic
impact, subject to keeping people safe. Such judgements will be
informed based on the best available and most up-to-date scientific
evidence, and take into account the trade-offs involved.

Action that would be considered could include population distancing
strategies (such as school closures, encouraging greater home working,
reducing the number of large-scale gatherings) to slow the spread of
the disease throughout the population, while ensuring the country’s
ability to continue to run as normally as possible. The UK
governments’ education departments’ planning assumptions include the
possibility of having to close educational settings in order to reduce
the spread of infection.

We would consider such measures in order to protect vulnerable
individuals with underlying illnesses and thus at greater more at risk
of becoming seriously affected by the disease. The effectiveness of
these actions will need to be balanced against their impact on
society.

Seems a bit light touch to me and no mention of comms. Apologies again if missing something?
