Elderly people in UK told to self-isolate by Health Secretary

Elderly people in the UK will be told to self-isolate “within the coming weeks” the UK Health Secretary Matt Hancock told British channel Sky News on Sunday.

Hancock also called on manufacturers to help build more ventilators which he said were “critical” in the battle to help those who are ill.

Hancock said that the UK was likely to need “many more times” the current 5,000 ventilators, amid concerns hospitals will come under intense pressure.
