Similarly https://www.washingtonpost.com/graphics/2020/world/corona-simulator/ is an excellent resource for educating people as to why attending the local pub not be the best idea (Tip - It gets more positive as you scroll down!)

Our governments approach to the virus appears to be less draconian than the measures in Spain, I think by not outright banning movement at the moment they are trying to flatten the peak so that although the infection rate will be the same as with no measures it will be spread out to enable the NHS to cope, sadly I think that either way there's going to be a lot of casualties to the vulnerable groups being people in the over eighties and with other health issues, we are very anxious at the moment as our nephew has cystic fibrosis and is currently in a poor state of health, he's fortunate that he always works from home.

Brittany Ferries is to suspend all passenger services as a result of the coronavirus crisis.

The company, which had already halted some crossings, said the last passenger sailing would leave Santander in Spain on Saturday, bound for Portsmouth.

Passengers will be asked to remain in their cabins over the coming days and bring their own food, as there will be none available on board.

Our crossing is the 14th April. Don’t think we will be on the ferry even if their crossings all return to normal.

I am sorry to say that no way will the ferries be operating then because the travel restrictions are in place for 30 days. So if I was you I would wait until your booking is cancelled and then request a refund.

The way some of them have behaved in Benidorm I think they should be made to walk home.

Latest from Ryanair

From 24:00 hrs Tue 24 Mar we expect that most if not all Ryanair Group flights will be grounded, except for a very small number of flights to maintain essential connectivity, mostly between the UK and Ireland. Details of these severely reduced schedule can be found on the Travel Advisory page on the Ryanair.com website, which will be updated regularly.

Just got back today from Liverpool, Ryanair. Good job too, as it looks like
there won't be flights from next week.
What's the score with supermarkets and farmacia? Coming back thro' GA
it looked like everywhere was closed down.
