We've officially entered the "delay" phase of the response as the "contain" phase hasn't worked but, on the face of it, nothing has really changed. There's been plenty of talk about what could happen if things get worse (which they will) but nothing immediate.
It all leaves you with a sense of uncertainty. Should we be glad that "the science" doesn't currently support taking more action or should we be concerned that the country is being too complacent about it all when you compare the response to that of numerous other countries around the world.
It's very much a case of "keep calm and carry on."

What essentially amounts to a three month trial gives me plenty of time to see if it's a good fit.

The first muse-letter was sent out earlier but went as raw Markdown rather than nice HTML. Oops.
I'll stick my hands up, I forgot to add Markdown support to the custom post type but that's now fixed ready for next time.
As is the way with WordPress, everything is available online (the first letter is here) and it automatically creates an RSS feed of the post type but the muse-letter is designed to be viewed, and interacted with, by email.
@colinwalker I think, of your two options, it's the latter. I'm not sure the science is conclusive, but there are plenty of science-types (WHO, for example) saying the UK isn't doing enough. My office (I'm in London) has just told everyone to work from home from Monday, despite the government still dragging its heels on the issue.
