Dear cJA , there are several orders of magnitude between the BritGov and REALITY :o

This JC is occasionally a bit muddled, but usually spot on , a valuable resource for news

Imperial College London
COVID-19: Imperial researchers model likely impact of public health measures
by Dr Sabine L. van Elsland, Ryan O'Hare
17 March 2020

“We use the latest estimates of severity to show that policy strategies which aim to mitigate the epidemic might halve deaths and reduce peak healthcare demand by two-thirds, but that this will not be enough to prevent health systems being overwhelmed. More intensive, and socially disruptive interventions will therefore be required to suppress transmission to low levels. It is likely such measures – most notably, large scale social distancing – will need to be in place for many months, perhaps until a vaccine becomes available.”

From what I've gleaned from different sources, Imperial College of London is an excellent source of factual information. If anyone has alternative information, I'd be happy to see it.
