The Prime Minister will write to every UK household to urge them to stay at home, protect the NHS and save lives.
A letter from the Prime Minister will land on the doorsteps of 30 million households across all four UK nations from next week.
The Prime Minister will outline the guidance everyone should follow and the measures the government has put in place to fight coronavirus and to support businesses and workers.
He will urge everyone to follow the rules to save lives and thank NHS staff working round the clock as well as everyone volunteering their time to protect others.
I am writing to you to update you on the steps we are taking to combat
coronavirus.
In just a few short weeks, everyday life in this country has changed dramatically.
We all feel the profound impact of coronavirus not just on ourselves, but on our
loved ones and our communities.
I understand completely the difficulties this disruption has caused to your lives,
businesses and jobs. But the action we have taken is absolutely necessary, for one
very simple reason.
If too many people become seriously unwell at one time, the NHS will be unable
to cope. This will cost lives. We must slow the spread of the disease, and reduce
the number of people needing hospital treatment in order to save as many lives as
possible.
That is why we are giving one simple instruction – you must stay at home.
You should not meet friends or relatives who do not live in your home. You may
only leave your home for very limited purposes, such as buying food and
medicine, exercising once a day and seeking medical attention. You can travel to
and from work but should work from home if you can.
When you do have to leave your home, you should ensure, wherever possible,
that you are two metres apart from anyone outside of your household.
These rules must be observed. So, if people break the rules, the police will issue
fines and disperse gatherings.
I know many of you will be deeply worried about the financial impact on you and
your family. The Government will do whatever it takes to help you make ends
meet and put food on the table.
The enclosed leaflet sets out more detail about the support available and the rules
you need to follow. You can also find the latest advice at gov.uk/coronavirus
From the start, we have sought to put in the right measures at the right time. We
will not hesitate to go further if that is what the scientific and medical advice tells
us we must do.
It’s important for me to level with you – we know things will get worse before
they get better. But we are making the right preparations, and the more we all
follow the rules, the fewer lives will be lost and the sooner life can return to
normal.
I want to thank everyone who is working flat out to beat the virus, in particular
the staff in our fantastic NHS and care sector across England, Scotland, Wales
and Northern Ireland. It has been truly inspirational to see our doctors, nurses and
other carers rise magnificently to the needs of the hour.
Thousands of retired doctors and nurses are returning to the NHS – and hundreds
of thousands of citizens are volunteering to help the most vulnerable. It is with
that great British spirit that we will beat coronavirus and we will beat it together.
That is why, at this moment of national emergency, I urge you, please, to stay at
home, protect the NHS and save lives.

Be better saving the money and spend it on vital PPE equipment for our valiant NHS workers.

I hope the letter will explain Why they cut back on testing ignoring WHO advice
Why they are only doing a tenth of the tests Germany do
Why they ignored the result of an exercise 4 years ago which highlighted the NHS could not cope with a Pandemic.
Why they never increased the supply of PPE until the virus hit
Why are they have not tested the staff off sick & self isolating
Write a letter? In this day and age and in this situation?
I'm sure there are plenty of other mediums with which to address the nation rather than sending postmen to every house.
