And they have to be able to communicate it in an effective way such that people believe it... AND can act on it. AND can act on it in a way that doesn't trigger panic or totally mess with supply chains needed to get proper equipment to front-line responders.
like Lawrence from azangru's quote above, the medical establishment needs to consider many more factors than 'common people' before making a public statement.
