Enforce social distancing measures to stop Covid19 spread as per WHO guidelines
The UK is the only Covid19 infected country going for the 'herd immunity' response, against WHO guidelines. This could result in millions of people dying. Other countries, especially China have shown that taking drastic social distancing measures can work to reduce the spread of the virus.
The virus curve must be flattened so that people don't die. A good reference for why social distancing is necessary to flatten this curve and potentially how it can stop a huge loss of life and how it has affected other countries can be found here https://medium.com/@tomaspueyo/coronavirus-act-today-or-people-will-die-f4d3d9cd99ca, written by Tomas Pueyo.
