Just so it has been said, I would start a strictly enforced NATIONAL LOCKDOWN immediately, as part of a default ZERO COVID public health strategy.

All discretionary AIR TRAVEL should also STOP and anyone returning from abroad should go into 2 weeks QUARANTINE in guarded hotels.

TESTING, TRACING and ISOLATION efforts need to be NATIONALISED and given to the NHS and LOCAL COUNCILS to manage.

All STAFF, LABS, TESTING FACILITIES funded by the STATE should be requisitioned and all INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY developed by SERCO and DELOITTE gifted to the nation.

A UNIVERSAL BASIC INCOME needs to be introduced in order to simplify and standardise the support available to all CITIZENS.

The @ExcludedUK and @ForgottenLtd need to be included this time.

MORTGAGES and RENTS may need to be suspended for the duration of the PANDEMIC.

SCHOOLS need to be CLOSED for the remainder of the COVID pandemic.

The CHILDREN of KEYWORKERS should continue to be educated in school along with CHILDREN AT RISK and those in needs of other important SOCIAL SERVICES.

TV-BASED SCHOOLS should be set up for each AGE GROUP.

PROGRAMMING should provide CLASSES in a range of SUBJECTS, along with FUN activities, EMOTIONAL SUPPORT + access to additional forms of assistance.

Regular SUPPORT PACKS should be sent to all homes.

TELEVISIONS are available in more households than COMPUTERS and can provide a wide range of engaging content.

An EMERGENCY NATIONAL CURRICULUM should be developed after rapid and wide consultation, and focused on teaching ESSENTIALS.

Tweaks and changes should be minimised.

If the COVID PANDEMIC shows no sign of ending after 3 months EVERY CHILD in the UK should be given a high quality LAPTOP that will last 3 - 5 years.

The addition burdens asked of TEACHERS should be kept to an absolute minimum, and they should be treated as trusted + skilled professionals.

They should be provided with SOFTWARE + ONLINE PLATFORMS that help to solve common problems and support the children they teach.

VACCINES should only be used according to the protocols developed and tested by the MANUFACTURERS.

VACCINES should always be referred to by their full name so patients and the public know which vaccine, exactly, is being referred to in each case.

The VACCINES may fail.

PROMPTS and TEXT MESSAGES should be used to remind patients to attend appointments for their booster jabs.

PROFESSIONALS providing CRITICAL or HIGH RISK services should be VACCINATED FIRST, followed by those who are at less immediate risk but who come from HIGH RISK DEMOGRAPHICS

We should learn from OTHER COUNTRIES and deploy strategies that have been demonstrated to work at scale.

All MESSAGING should be CLEAR, SIMPLE and EVIDENCE-BASED.

POLITICIANS, SPADs or PUBLIC SERVANTS that break the rules that apply to the public should be DISMISSED.

The use of FACE MASKS and regular HAND WASHING should be regularly repeated and any new measures should be clearly explained and demonstrated via TV advertising.

For many people, HOME WORKING may be necessary for a YEAR or more. SUPPORT SERVICES should be developed and scaled up, particularly in relation to MENTAL and PHYSICAL HEALTH.

Households without high speed INTERNET ACCESS should be connected and given low cost plans.

People who normally perform non-essential work outside their home they should be given hassle free FINANCIAL SUPPORT in the form of a UNIVERSAL BASIC INCOME.

This should be quibble free and quick. MORTGAGES and LOANS should be frozen and resume once normal work is possible.

POLITICIANS should resist the urge to tinker with policies + focus of delivering the ZERO COVID strategy nationwide.

One case was able to infect the entire nation, so TESTING, TRACING + ISOLATION should be used to hunting down every possible INFECTION, with VACCINES mopping up.

It may take 6 MONTHS to 2 YEARS to control this EPIDEMEDIC if the VACCINES don't deliver as hoped, the virus continues MUTATING or REINFECTIONS continue to be allowed from abroad.

We should develop LONG TERM PLANS for INDIVIDUALS, BUSINESSES and SOCIETIES.

The PRECAUTIONARY PRINCIPLE should guide all decision making, with precautions being taken until risks are known or understood.

LONG COVID and other consequences of COVID INFECTIONS may emerge over the months ahead and need new services, diagnostics and protocols.

ONLINE SERVICES, ENTREPRENEURS or INDIVIDUALS that have developed successful initiatives, educational approaches or demonstrated some originality / dynamism should be identified, backed and helped at the local, regional and national scales.

CRONYISM should be actively minimised so that TRUST and CONFIDENCE can be maintained and RESOURCES can be spent effectively.

EMERGENCY RESERVES should be used to problem solve and remove bottlenecks.

You may have other ideas or know of additional SOLUTIONS. If so, please suggest them, as I know I won't have thought of everything.

Getting out of this crisis, will be a team effort.

In my view, we should put HUMAN WELFARE at the centre of all efforts + rebuild from there.
