The Government are working closely with the World Health Organization, along with advice from leading scientists to ensure that the most effective measures are adopted for the United Kingdom.

Public Health England is also in regular contact with laboratories and public health organisations across the world in order to understand the processes they have adopted in relation to contact tracing, risk assessments, guidance and laboratory processes.
