The total amount of confirmed cases of Covid-19 in the UK hit 590 today, with the death toll at eight.

Boris Johnson today warned the nation that “many more families will lose loved ones before their time” and that Covid-19 was the “worst public health crisis in a generation”.

He revealed that the government’s updated advice is for everyone with any flu-like symptoms to self-isolate for a week.

Johnson has not taken the step of cancelling events, like the Scottish government announced today.

Schools will also not be closed as in some other countries.

“We are not closing schools at this time.

“This could do more harm than good at this time.”

He also advised people over the age of 70 to not go on any cruises and that protecting the elderly would be top priority.
