Coronavirus - is enough being done to contain it?

According to the Daily Telegraph the line of succession is this:

1. Boris Johnson, Prime Minister
2. Dominic Raab, Foreign Secretary and First Secretary of State
3. Rishi Sunak, Chancellor of the Exchequer
4. Priti Patel, Home Secretary
5. Michael Gove, Chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster

Boris Johnson could announce a change in the order if he wanted to, but if it doesn't do so then the above would apply.
