UK: Daily gov't COVID-19 briefing set to start at 1700BST (1800CET, 1200ET), led
by 1st Sec of State Dominic Raab. 
- Widespread expectation that gov't will announce a 3-week extension to the
ongoing lockdown measures until early May. 
- UK remains high on the list of major economies in terms of daily increase in
cases and fatalities, although the rate of increase is slowing from previous
highs. 
- As such it seems the gov't is in no position to think about exit strategies
for lockdown, unlike some other Western countries that have seen a peak in cases
and fatalities.
