LONDON – On Thursday, British Prime Minister Boris Johnson stepped up the coronavirus outbreak response. The government is now moving into the so-called “delay phase” where more stringent measures are applied designed to slow down coronavirus spread.
“We are now getting onto the next phase. This is now not just an attempt to contain the disease as far as possible but to delay its spread.”
