    From .gov it doesn't look like that precludes leaving the home.

  • The guidance is that you can leave home but should practice social distancing. Johnson has said that if people continue to fail to practice social distancing, the rules will have to change and that would mean a more complete lockdown

  • The message has been badly bungled.

    Look at the podium from yesterday's update.

    Current gov guidance is behind what we should be doing to really slow it down.

    We should be in full lockdown, but as we're not we should be voluntarily doing what we can to slow it down... self-isolation is better than merely social distancing.

    The way I view it: every individual needs to count the number of people that they come within 2m of within a day at fewer than 5.

    So no... you're not missing gov guidance, but if you look at the numbers, scientist and Dr warnings of what's to come... we all should go further than the guidance to help it have a bigger impact on slowing things down.
