An Ipsos MORI poll, carried out online among 18-75 year olds between 27-30 March, has shown that 56% of people believe that the Government enforcement of social distancing measures were taken too late, whilst only 4% of people felt that they were taken too soon.

The Government enforcement has been effective though with 79% of people now saying they are avoiding leaving their homes up from only 50% before the Governmentโ€™s lockdown last week.

Kelly Beaver, MD Public Affairs at Ipsos MORI said, โ€œIt is very encouraging to see that four in five people are now avoiding leaving their home following the Governmentโ€™s enforcement of this last week.

“While the majority of people feel it came too late, the impact it has had on peopleโ€™s behaviour is critical at a time when we all need to be doing our part.โ€
