2:10 pm
trains and buses are where you are buying your flight doctor if you are thinking still running. people are allowed of a summer holiday, this is the to move around the country time to book? a package holiday, as for opposed to an independent. should the worst essential work or for medical happen, should the fco decide to reasons, or for family ban travel to that particular country, emergencies. but if they lie about this, you will get your money back and you they could face criminal charges. in some areas, the will be looked after if you are announcement sparked still away. your mailbox is full panic buying at supermarkets. but shops and cafe of questions asking about what you do is are you staying about a summer holiday. people are open, like these ones asking. you look at the weather here in the town of bologna. and shoppers are being told to keep it has been awful. people still want a safe distance from their sunshine. they are still each other, and restaurants looking to pick. what we are have to shut by 6pm. seeing is this delay. people are italians are struggling to come to terms with this strange waiting to see what is going to new reality. but many people are wondering happen. nick, just how strictly these this is from paul hazlewood in measures will be enforced. scarborough. i have returned from and if people will rome on the 5th of march. i choose to obey them. do not have any symptoms, do not believe i coronavirus is have any symptoms, do not believe i have come into contact with putting anyone a huge strain on with coronavirus. should i self—isolate? it italy's a huge strain with coronavirus. should i self— isolate ? it is with coronavirus. should i self—isolate? it is a confusing situation because the situation on italy's health service, changes very quickly. the latest
2:11 pm
one of the best in europe. information from the foreign in some places, people are being treated in hospital office corridors. is people returning from anywhere in the government says 7985 people have currently tested italy should stay indoors and avoid positive in contact with other people, even if italy. they have not developed symptoms. 4316 are in hospital, that is only from people who 733 patients are in intensive returned from italy on or after care. the 9th of march. for phil, he is fine because he was there every day, we meet a0 to 50 patients and it's becoming on the fifth, i very, very difficult to find a bed for every came back on the 5th of patient so, you know, if this keeps going like march. those who have visited other regions this, our system... unfortunately, i think any in northern italy, that advice goes health back two weeks. i would care system, no matter advise people to look at the department of how good, how modern, health website and the foreign office website, that contains the how efficient it is, is going latest information. it is to collapse. updated daily. if you tourism has been hit hard. started to develop popular sites are a deserted. the government sniff, self—isolate? daily. if you started to develop a sniff, self-isolate? absolutely. if you come back from any of the has promised isolated countries and to increase you have spending, but developed symptoms, call nhs triple their fears the italian one and they will give you economy could shrink by 3% because advice. is it safe to go to
2:12 pm
of hospital appointments? it is. the we have seen virus. under 400 positive cases in the uk. many of those have mild illnesses. at the end of last week, half of patients were being advised to stay at home. they were not sick enough british airways said that it is to need hospital treatment. it is not a capacity issue for hospitals. cancelling all flights to italy until april they are not under any the 4th. extra pressure at this time of year. we now, we are hearing that the nhs is looking have learnt that british airways has to make more use of video e—mailed all of its staff basically consultation. that advice may come asking whether they are to make change in the coming willing to ta ke volu nta ry asking whether they are willing to take voluntary unpaid leave, and days. my advice for anyone who has that give you a sense hospital appointments is to attend, of the trouble unless you hear otherwise. this was that give you a sense of the trouble that airlines are raised in the prime in. ryanair has minister post—match news conference also suspended flights to italy. yesterday. are our british airports ryanair operates a huge number of checking people for british airports? no, they are not. what flights internally in italy and is internationally to and from italy as happening is people coming back on flights from italy in the last well. norwegian air as well has said it is going to cancel 15% day, since they change the travel advice, of its they are being told to south isolate flight it is going to cancel 15% of its flight schedule and it is going to
2:13 pm
if they feel unwell. we are not have to temporary or temporarily lay checking anyone at the airport all staff. british airways is is at a sort the moment. why? i think it is of example of the broader problem probably an issue of the here. not on their own, all airlines fact it is staffing levels and mitigating not are in trouble and are adopt what it does achieve if suffering. it is not just because someone says you have a are in trouble and are suffering. it is notjust because of the italy situation, it is also due to slight temperature are you haven't? exactly a drop—off in passenger numbers that. having a temperature, globally. there airlines it takes operating a while for it dotted empty flights just to keep their it does. there ru nway slots. empty flights just to keep their runway slots. is that right? isa a while for it dotted it does. there is a study out today about the yes, it incubation period. on average is is. we confirm that with five days. we have seen virgin atla ntic last is. we confirm that with virgin atlantic last night. the transport some secretary wrote a letter to the countries have heat scanners for passengers to come through. the authority here in britain. problem is you might not develop a the problem is that european rules mean fever and you come through and that if airlines don't use everyone thinks you are fine but actually you are carrying the their slots, they risk losing them. key virus. the countries have introduced this slots, they risk losing them. key slots at places like have not managed to stem heathrow are the spread worth their weight in gold. airlines of the virus. tony say they are being forced, says surely one effectively, to keep running these area is through handling and flights even though they are empty. exchanging coins in shops. it isa flights even though they are empty. it is a scandal not only because it area is through handling and exchanging coins in shopsm area is through handling and exchanging coins in shops. it is a is damaging the airlines, but also question we have had before on
2:14 pm
because of environmental reasons as this. the risk, as i said earlier well. you have got empty to the other question, it can survive on planes flying around the world. the surfaces, can survive for a transport secretary has called on couple european colleagues to waive those of days. coins, because rules so that airlines don't have they pass through hands quickly, have perhaps to do this. we have got less risk than a hand to ask the rail or public european commission what is happening with this and we are transport. the significant risk comes when you spend some time waiting to with an affected individual. i would not hear back. be too worried about passengers stranded coins. notes on a cruise ship off the coast are the same? i think the of california have finally been able evidence suggests there are a higher evidence to disembark, after it was allowed to dock in oakland. to limit risk than with coins. lots 21 people onboard the grand princess have tested positive for the virus. of people arrangements are being made to fly more than a hundred british are using passengers back home, contactless as sophie long nowadays. if you've reports. had the virus, sailing into san francisco bay. after nearly a week stranded at sea, are you immune to it or could you go on to catch it again? the grand princess and thousands on board finally have we know with permission to dock. viruses, when you are infected, your cheering. body fights that infection than it this is the moment the passengers on board the grand princess have has some memory of fighting been longing for. that infection and gives you some for days, they've been confined to the cabins, not knowing immunity. what we don't know where or when their ordeal would end. with coronavirus, it is a new virus, we
2:15 pm
now, finally, the san francisco do not know how long that immunity skyline is in sight. lasts. they have been some reports waiting at the dock, of your being reinfected quite teams ready to take those in need quickly. we do not know if that is of urgent medical care a problem with some of to hospital. this is a complex, high—stakes the testing being incorrect. they will have some disembarkment process that could take immunity but we do not know how long. lisa, we have sort of covered several days. last off are likely to be this but this a international passengers, question from a including more than doctor who says why 120 britons. are people among them are neil flying back from italy not being and victoria hanlon. what has been the worst thing into quarantine immediately, as for you over the past four days? where those returning from china? just the not knowing, they just seem and the fact that we were at sea to and couldn't where those returning from china? theyjust seem to be a different policy each day. i think that is a see land. problem. they are having to make when we saw land yesterday, different decisions every day. as i just felt absolutely fantastic, of yesterday, when they said the to be able to see the golden advised all but gate bridge in view. that felt essential travel to brilliant. china, now the icing for people but you were very upset yesterday morning, weren't you? to self—isolate. i think yeah, well... she was crying yesterday. that comes i felt down, really, just the not knowing down to what was happening and when it was going to end. the government american passengers are being transported to military areas thinking in california, about whether the when
2:16 pm
texas and this turns into them forcing people to georgia. stay—at—home. you do not want to international citizens from 53 quarantine people for a long period countries will be repatriated on chartered flights of time because people start from oakland airport. to ignore that. whereas, if it is a short period of time, people can see but the lives of more than 1,100 crew will remain in limbo. that as an end in sight. i think they will not be allowed to leave that as an end in sight. i think thatis that as an end in sight. i think that is where they are at the the ship, and the ship will not be moment. one final question for allowed to stay here. you, sophie long, nick. with the spanish flu of 1918, bbc there was a second wave of news, san infection that was more deadly than the first. this is likely to francisco. happen again? a lot of comparisons being made with flute generally. we forget how deadly flu can be. well, indeed. spanish flu was 100 years ago and things have moved on a lot since iamjoined by i am joined by jason i am joined byjason farley from john hopkins school of then. it is a concern that we could nursing in get a second way. we are hearing a baltimore. what happens in those lot about the restrictions five days? to try after exposure, and delay the outbreak, delay the we know peak and flatten the peak that we have an incubation period. as well. there is a concern you can suppress 0n that we have an incubation period. it too much and within a few months
2:17 pm
on average, it is around five days. what we do know is that we you get a second wave and what you don't want is that happening next are extending the window on the recommendation in the united states, winter when the nhs extending that window up to 1a would be under days to allow for any cases that may pressure again. lisette, we are talking about in two weeks people go beyond the average. it will are saying we will be in the depend on each individual person. this same position of italy. travel is was based on published data and there the last thing people are going to do. are reports available from cases this is going to cause a huge around the world. it was a amount of problem for travel firms who are small sample, but the largest really struggling right now data that we and losing millions and millions of have to date. what does that mean in pounds. it is going terms of people who could be walking to affect, as around right now with no symptoms at consumers, how much holidays are all but you have got the virus? how going to cost us for many years many days could that be to come. thank you very much going on? we believe that transmission begins for taking the questions. thank you both very much. that to occur after the symptoms is your have onset. patients may be feeling a cough questions answered. i or feeling a fever, and am going we believe that to take people are most infectious once it for symptoms begin. but being said, the house of commons. borisjohnson we don't honestly know if that means is facing his first that the day before or two days rebellion since before there was symptoms onset that his victory. we are awaiting
2:18 pm
the person could be the vote. this follows a number shedding virus. of the researchers estimated senior conservatives who backed that four an amendment, which would people quarantined for 13 end the days, only chinese firm's participation in the 101 would develop symptoms. what do project by the start of you make of that? when we think 2023, as you about larger containment and can see mps are quarantine, we definitely need to go beginning to resume abroad and cast a wide net. their seats. ministers, so the far, exposure that individuals may have, can see mps are beginning to resume theirseats. ministers, so far, have approved the involvement. ifa they kept the share at 35% exposure that individuals may have, if a person remains asymptomatic, never develops symptoms and then but critics say the never develops symptoms and then never tests positive and they company is part of the chinese state went and a risk through quarantine, that was out of an abundance of caution. it is to security. also important when we think about a claim quarantine measures that we think that the farm projects. leaky says the chinese firm will be excluded that direct contact with from the more another sensitive parts. —— individual is that rank. we know the government says the that direct contact with environmental surfaces that a person with coronavirus may have had, firm. nokia even if they may not physically still be and ericsson are also involved in the space, if they coughed or in the development of 5g. the united
2:19 pm
sneezed or left behind states, which has banned droplets on the company the surface, but transmission has been critical of because of us touching that surface the yuki and then touching our own decision so far. it is urging mucus membranes isn't highly likely the uk to rethink its plans. in this setting. we are looking we arejust at italy now. the situation here in the i say, waiting that vote. uk is getting worse. i was in the states last week. the situation elixir not seems to be a few days far away now. behind how we i can see are. watching and learning from iain duncan other countries and what timeframes smith. —— that do you put on, oh, we could be put is not far in italy's position? it away now. is hard to we are going to keep an eye on that estimate. some countries are for you. they could be rightly putting in containment measures that any moment. we will return to the house of are appropriate for their borders. commons when that happens. ben is across the united states, we have here with the business news. different responses that are ongoing first our in different communities depending on the local spread. i think that headlines. what is what is really essential here. mitigating further cases do activities like social distancing, a six person has great hand washing with 00:19:59,1000 --> 00:20:01,312 soap and died. public
2:20 pm
gatherings are banned in italy and water or alcohol —based hand border checks are increased sanitiser is. and doing what you as the have been talking about on your coronavirus lockdown in italy programme, the things like cleaning comes into effect. british airways, our daily devices, making sure that we are, as much ryanair cancelled into effect. british airways, rya nair cancelled their flights between the uk as possible, avoiding light crowds. really thinking about how to get past it and april until and making sure that testing is early april. available to all that need it. these are available to all that need it. these a re key available to all that need it. these are key features of our current response in the united states. here's your business headlines on afternoon live without being told to do stock markets in europe have opened so, when would you consider self higher following sharp falls yesterday, when isolating?|j think would you consider self isolating?” think if i had known exposure shares saw to an the biggest falls individual who tested positive for since the 2008 coronavirus, as an infectious disease clinician that is certainly but in new york and a possibility, ithink london shares have disease clinician that is certainly a possibility, i think we are seeing this tipped back into the red, exa m ples of after a slump of nearly 8% a possibility, i think we are seeing examples of elected leadership you are in the united states who are in the previous session. markets were battered on monday self quarantining because of exposure is that they have had. in reaction to the threat of an oil price war between russia i and saudi arabia and fears over think that is the right thing the spread of coronavirus. to do forfrom think that is the right thing to do for from that perspective. i think several big banks, including we all need to self rbs and tsb say they'll allow customers to defer mortgage and loan repayments for up to 3 reflect and treat every single person that we months for customers hit by coronavirus. may come in contact with as though they'll also waive early closure charges on savings accounts

you think, from that all dealing with potentially hundreds of elusive cure? we elderly or a people with underlying health conditions who could get this have made huge strides virus. that is the focus now, but at in treating with the same time, we anti—retrovirals, we use a have a real debate combination of therapies with two or now over whether switzerland should three drugs and these can maintain close its border with italy. as the virus we know, the first cases were in the control for south of the country where decades, we have basically. this is a revolution in 70,000 italian workers itself. and really cure is coming across the border to the next frontier. of course, took work everyday. us a long time to controlling hiv in the first crucially, 4000 of them in the place and a similar amount of time health service. at the weekend, we to have the really wanted to make sure cure. has anyone that bordeaux stayed open. now, certainly said congratulations to you recently? a among the population, there is a couple of people. make it three. feeling of unease and a wandering very good to talk to you. thank you that perhaps it might very much be better to for your close it. germany, switzerland, time. france, austria, we all have borders back to our main with each other. they have been open story now, for years. it is going to be very and the coronavirus strange if those borders continues start to close. no other to make to spread
2:45 pm
colleague across the damien in brussels. the european globe. commission have been discussing they are taking this very seriously. what is the problem, the europe—wide outbreak today. they what is trying have said that there to be countered here? we are now all know confirmed cases in every single that millions, perhaps billions of people turn to social media are a eu country. we are hearing about open search engine as a first port borders there. there is a call of call for anything, and in particular that free movement continues, but health this virus. i have been ca re free movement continues, but health care measures take precedent. within looking at various places online and belgium, we now have seeing 267 cases. when quite a lot of death has been reported so misinformation, conspiracy theories, hoaxes. what far, i believe. they are very conscious sort of thing? there are a whole hear about the pressure on intensive bunch of stuff on facebook and ca re hear about the pressure on intensive care beds. they say around 1500 youtube videos alleging that the virus is a intensive care beds are available in belgium. 20 at the moment hoax, alleging it i occupied was by covid—19 patients. what they are manufactured deliberately any government lab. there are a whole trying to do is free up intensive range of people ca re trying to do is free up intensive care beds. they are conscious that alleging it is the geographical spread is right caused by five g mobile phone across belgium. a lot of networks. there are groups on that... i think the belief is people who facebook dedicated have been travelled to the exposed people against campaigning against these 5g who have travelled to
2:46 pm
networks. they had 5g in china and italy. cases in the northern part of belgium, they are saying that is what caused it in the first place. it is flemish speaking cases, and it also not may be spreading wildly, it may its of places. nato be prevalent within those groups, and institutions, eu it is difficult to know what is institutions, links to schools and going inside those right across the country. at the minute, we are still in the groups and there containment face here, but the isa going inside those groups and there is a concerted effort by the health government and the security council service and the social media had an emergency meeting today to companies to get together and do look at possible ways this could be something about this. the difficulty is those who want to ramped up in future. what we are also seeing is that there believe it, will always find something, if will be a they are into the conspiracy theories, so co nfe re nce also seeing is that there will be a conference call, a video conference how do you effectively call, by eu leaders coordinated counter it without shutting it down? what later this afternoon they to discuss a are doing is labelling, coordinated response. one of the putting next frustrations in the eu is that there to any of this misinformation, isa proper information. i am looking at frustrations in the eu is that there is a sort of piecemeal approach. some countries have been banning some of these youtube videos and exports of protective gear that conspiracy videos and they italy has called for. some countries have nhs banners underneath them or are bringing in tougher controls at their borders. they want to world health organization banners with coordinate all of that together and accurate information about the starting to talk as well about virus. if you possible economic measures that do is search could be ta ken
2:47 pm
on google possible economic measures that could be taken down the line is a on facebook and youtube, you will coordinated economic response is find me for a grant accurate needed. perhaps something along the lines of what we saw with the information. this is a bit better financial crisis. all of those sorts than a year information. this is a bit better thana yearorso information. this is a bit better of things are now than a year or so ago. there ramping up here. was concern about egypt that that was damien ending up that if somebody round—up there. we will have watched one conspiracy plenty video —— more on the coronavirus issue there was a concern about youtube throughout the afternoon here that people got taken down a rabbit on afternoon hole. there has been some effort to stop that. there is a worrying level life. of it. it is a memorial service has worrying the culture been held in ethiopia, secretary. he says it is a year after a boeing 737—max plane crashed in the country, a top killing all 157 people on board. priority. digital interference, and the crash followed a similar the form of what? there will be incident in indonesia, five months earlier. people on the one of the british victims wasjoanne toole, who worked for the united nations. lookout for foreign her father adrian has been speaking to our interference, are there efforts by transport correspondent, tom burridge. governments such as russia to sow confusion and discord? i do not think there is a lot of evidence for that but that's sort of thing has happened in the past and we know for insta nce happened in the past and we know for instance what was around 5g, the joe was a star.

2:52 pm
you mentioned this earlier, we such as liam fox, for example. this is only are the second time he has ever talking about ghost flights. it voted seems to make no sense whatsoever. against his own government. he said that when it comes to security, as tom was explaining to you, there is no question. he is not these flights need to be operated willing to accept the to take these take off and landing slots. role of huawei in the 5g network. iain duncan smith they are the lifeline for says that britain is many airlines. essentially, they are in isolated on place to make sure firms don't buy this. the americans, japanese, them up, sit on them and don't other partners that the uk works very operate flights, preventing closely with on the issue of the security are not happy with the competitors to do so. it is not involvement of this chinese going to happen at the moment, is firm, it? the commission will now look at and he doesn't think the uk should this request from the british be either. he thinks that the problem for the government is that government and decide whether they they did not give the assurances will relax the rules. many will today that people be hoping that will happen. virgin wanted to hear. atla ntic hoping that will happen. virgin atlantic has admitted that it is there was no date put on this, a problem. so many others, which was not enough for this quite clearly, a re quite large problem. so many others, quite number now of conservatives. they clearly, are facing similar pressures . clearly, are facing similar pressures. airlines of all sites are wa nt to number now of conservatives. they want to see much more of a facing a tough time given commitment from the government. we will have to see over the next few that slump in bookings. the advice for people months whether there is more of to self—isolate and not go a movement. the telling thing is that to work, some of those people who are banks are coming forward saying they rebelling against the government i
2:53 pm
are going to try and help people who have been on the inside, them. banks are coming forward saying they are going to try and help themm they have seen security advice in is not hugely unusual for big organisations to allow people to they have seen security advice in the past, they think that they have have a payment holiday, may be seen enough to be very the are facing financial difficulty at concerned home, may someone has lost their about huawei being involved. they do job. the cars and get in touch not believe the reassurances with us job. the cars and get in touch with us and we will being made by the government. the backdrop let you know if is trade talks you can pay your mortgage payments imminently for the later. maybe you have government, particularly for china put money into and the united states. they are a savings account, they may not going to have charge you. you will be able to get to pick, and cash out on your credit card they? interestingly, a lot of the without paying that cash advance fee conservatives are people who might well wa nt to which conservatives are people who might is normally quite expensive. the well want to do a deal with america banks are seeing times might be when it comes to trade. tight if you are not able to go and with the eu, of course. but they say that to work, so this could be one option to pay the bills every month and make security is the paramount issue sure you have got what you here. there is some suspicion among some that president trump is need. lots of businesses have suggested it using this as an excuse because he is in a is time for a rate cut. bit of a trade war himself with what are the chances? tomorrow is the budget. we the chinese. but there are thoughts that will get an indication they are of it goes deeper than that. what the chancellor intends to do to there are genuine concerns, as one person put mitigate some of these risks. the it to me, governments spend a lot interest rates are set by the bank of
