Michael Gove: Coronavirus crisis has ‘a range of potential outcomes’

The UK has now been in lockdown for almost a week as the nation tries to grapple with fighting the coronavirus. The government has said that it will look again at whether to renew the current restrictions after three weeks have elapsed. Sophy Ridge asked the Chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster Michael Gove about how long the lockdown period could last. Gove replied that it was not ‘absolutely fixed’ and that a lot would depend on people following the official guidelines:

MG: There is a range… of potential outcomes, but those outcomes are not pre-determined. Our behaviour can influence those outcomes… And if all of us practice safe social distancing… the NHS can become better equipped to deal with this situation.
