Here are five things to bring you up to speed with the coronavirus outbreak this Thursday evening. We'll have another update for you on Good Friday morning.

1. UK yet to see coronavirus peak

Social distancing is working and the signs are that the NHS can cope - but we still haven't seen the peak of the coronavirus in the UK, and it's too soon to start thinking about relaxing the lockdown. Deaths are still rising - 7,978 people with coronavirus have died in UK hospitals. Those are the key lines from the latest government press conference, led by Foreign Secretary Dominic Raab.
