Hudson-Odoi from Chelsea has tested positive now too. It's clear the authorities are going to have to call it imminently. Due to the nature of the virus and people potentially having it for a couple of weeks before any symptoms even show, god knows how many people they may have passed it onto in the interim.
IMO they ought to announce all sporting activity postponed for 3 weeks and all players and club staff who engage with them to self-isolate. It needs to be at minimum this long to let any affected parties get through it and hopefully out the other side. The season would then finish end of May rather than the start, but that's not really a problem is it? Obviously if after 3 weeks the nation-wide and global situation hasn't calmed down enough for things to resume then we'll have to delay it further, but so be it. Once things are ok, fixtures can be arranged for Saturday-Tues to get things wrapped up pretty quickly, pitches will have had plenty of time to recover because of the hiatus.
The Euros can just get put back to 2021.
