Answered by Chloe Smith
Working to ensure that public information on COVID-19 is accessible and reaches all those who need it is a high priority for the Government.
Important health guidance, for example on social distancing and symptoms, has been translated into a range of languages and formats. Key Covid-19 content in alternative formats is available on the Public Health England's Campaign Resource Centre for health bodies, Local Authorities and voluntary sector organisations to access, share and use.
