6:04 am
the conversation earlier about with a learning disability. charlie casting doubt about that brilliant man who got a hole in one? this programme has been told by did you hear? i have that we have care watchdog for england last upset charlie enough so i will move month there was a 175% increase on. i don't think you have. they don't think there is a limit, in the death rate in places personally. the time now is 7:31. where they may live compared to the same period last year. nhs england say that data on covid—related deaths who may be going back to school? in people with learning have you already made a decision? let's bring you up—to—date with disabilities will be published this week. today's main stories. on wednesday, a test which can tell the official uk death whether you've ever been infected toll from covid—i9 in all with coronavirus has been approved by health officials in england. it looks for antibodies settings rose by a9a to 33,186. for covid—19 in the bloodstream and could help to reveal the true but amidst all this sadness, number of people that have been infected. now, scientists say this a piece of positive news. is the first test to show "serious potential" after a number of others were found public health england looks set not to be sufficiently reliable. to give the green light it's expected the government to an antibody test made by german manufacturer roche. it means people for will set out more details the first time, people can found out if they have had covid—i9 and have the deployed later on how it plans to provide more immune response to fight it, particularly support for care homes important for those in england. it follows growing criticism that the care on the frontline. sector was neglected for too long during the pandemic.
6:05 am
and it's those workers yesterday, the labour leader sir keir starmer accused the government of "acting too slow" we will be thinking of again tonight as the country comes out to clap for carers to protect people in care. in an act that's now become a national ritual. the world health organization is warning that covid—19 may be a show of togetherness something that people have against a virus to learn to live with which still keeps us apart. and "may never go away". there are currently more than 100 charlotte rose, bbc news. potential vaccines in development. but the organisation's emergency director says even if one is found to work, it may not be possible let's talk now to our political correspondent, chris mason, to completely eliminate the virus. who is in westminsterfor us. we will be talking about testing a good morning, chris. when it comes little bit later on. we will be to ca re good morning, chris. when it comes to care homes and how the government has dealt with care homes, this speaking to a minister in a few minutes about this, a little later, issue isn't to look at testing and the going away? it isn't, this is a challenges the government has been huge, swirling question about this presented with when it comes to dealing with care homes and that tragedy that is unfolding in care homes. the most recent statistics suggest the week ending may one, a0% of covid—i9 related that were in conversation between keir starmer and boris johnson. ca re of covid—i9 related that were in care homes stop now a huge amount of let's chat with mike. there's been a scrutiny about how that has managed lot of talk about how, when and now to happen. we saw yesterday sir keir we have various plans emerging about starmer, the relatively new labour how we could restart. yes, indeed.
6:06 am
good morning. we are in phase one of players returning to individual leader, dredging archives, his training in the premier league, at approach in prime ministers questions, asking the pay minister waite was advised into the middle of least. just a quick word on dele alli, a quick bit on after he was march, suggesting that care homes we re march, suggesting that care homes were not at any greater risk than held at knife point and punched in anyone else. a bit of an exchange of letters, something of a political his home, his club is offering its row, the prime minister said sir full support. police of course are keir starmer had taken the advice out of context at the time and the advice had rapidly changed. what we investigating. on this continue discussion of if and when the are getting is a real detailed focus premier league may return, it is on what has happened. big about certainly dominating the back page headlines today, the government have weight the beginning of this crisis when there was huge concerned about labelled their 1a point plan for the nhs being overwhelmed, that one athletes returning as a milestone on of the consequences of that fear was the road to sports return. but it has also warned no—one should be lots of people were moved out of hospitals and into care homes, and for a period of time, were being forced into action. so there are two tested to see if they had the virus —— were not being tested. tested to see if they had the virus -- were not being tested. the phases. government has responded and said there is an extra £600 million bercow homes in england. do we know the first something exactly what the money will be spent on? yeah, a key part of this is
6:07 am
many premier league clubs like arsenal here have been doing about infection control. there is already, which is allowing athletes some scepticism within the sector as to train, as long as they maintain far as this money is concerned, social distancing guidelines. venues also need to be deep cleaned because they make the argument that and individuals screened. the next phase will allow closer they do that already and they want contact, like tackling. to see precisely where this money it comes as premier league captains and managers held discussions might go. the government source also with their unions on how and when england's top flight will return safely. saying there is less stark rotation you could say were never going to between care homes when they are play again ever or when we are able obviously potential spreaders of the to play, and as i say, it may be one disease —— staff rotation, and also or two years, decide on why we can't to ensure that wages are what they should be within the gas sector as finish the nine games and start the well. but yeah, there's a scepticism following season straightaway, because the bays will have a ready on care home providers simply ha rd because the bays will have a ready hard for five because the bays will have a ready hard forfive or six because the bays will have a ready hard for five or six months. because the bays will have a ready hard forfive or six months. we don't need to have time off, we because they feel that they've been could just go straight into the next ignored for too long in this crisis, season. it should be promoted. andindeed ignored for too long in this crisis, and indeed ignored before this crisis began, as they see it. so at the moment the plan is for the indeed. thank you, chris, we will see you later. schedule to return to action injune we'll be speaking to the health minister edward argar at 7:30am. doctors say up to a hundred children in the uk have been treated in hospitalfor a rare inflammatory after the training but some players disease linked to coronavirus. are still reticent. last month, the nhs told medical staff to look out for the condition, after a ia—year—old boy died so we've been hearing this morning
6:08 am
and seven other children became seriously ill. officials have approved a new blood test that could determine whether you have ever been infected with the researchers think the condition could be caused by a delayed immune response to the virus. coronavirus. good morning edward the world health organization argar, thank you for your time. is warning that covid—i9 may be thank you. can you tell us what the something that people have to learn situation is in regards to this new to live with and "may never go away." test? so, as you will recall about there are currently more than 100 potential vaccines in development. four or five weeks ago i was on your but the organisation's emergency director says even if one is found programme and there have been some to work, it may not be possible tests put forward through public health england and we hope this to completely eliminate the virus. more lockdown restrictions have been relaxed in new zealand, with the country reporting no antibody test would come up to new cases of covid—i9 for the third day in a row. shops, cafes and restaurants scratch, but unfortunately those are among the businesses now allowed to reopen. tests we talked about earlier did let's speak now to our correspondent, shaimma khalil, not. the good news is that this test who joins us from sydney. developed by roche appears to be tell us a little more about how the extremely reliable. it's got the situation is there today? well, it green light from public health in almost looks like a normal day in england testers, as i understand it. new zealand today, the country is backin new zealand today, the country is and we are currently in discussions back in business. we saw traffic with roche about that. i don't want
6:09 am
flowing as people return to work, to to say to mark about —— too much shops, to cafes, and there were busy about those discussions because they are ongoing but we want to get this parking lots as shoppers went to their local shopping was. but what onstream as quickly and quickly as we can because it can potentially really stood out to me, i must say, make a real difference. how many was very long queues outside test kits have you got? well, in barbershops and hairdressers stop discussion at the moment with roche they open after midnight and they we re they open after midnight and they were working through the night, on this. it has onlyjust gone giving people haircuts after weeks through the public of england of lockdown. but really, a very assessment is being reliable and doing thejob stop unique picture of people standing assessment is being reliable and doing the job stop therefore we are outside a hairdressers, after all of having those discussions. but we are keen to get as many as we can and those weeks without hairdos or get them out primarily to hotlines haircuts. but staff were wearing first, the nhs, social care and then masks, people waiting outside were told they had to keep a safe more widely —— to the front lines first. the prime ministers as this distance. while things are going back to normal, there are still many could be a game changer. could you say more about that for me, please? restrictions. for example, people are allowed to visit family and people are hearing the news that it friends but groups are restricted to is according to the releases we have ten, with the exception of funerals, seen so is according to the releases we have seen so far, is successful, it's got which are 15 maximum. sport will be the green light. in terms of the going back but without spectators production, and you just explain how that process will now begin? will it and travellers are allowed to travel be made here? you have any of the
6:10 am
across the country but they have to keep a record of who they have been kids as stands now? well, my in contact with and where they have been. so, yes, life in new zealand understanding it —— is we have only is going back to normal but people also urged to be very careful. shaimma, thank you very much. just got the green light, we are not the england and tottenham in the position to give these kids footballer, dele alli, has thanked fans for their support — after he was robbed at knifepoint. out. roche is based in germany where mike's got more on this for us. mike, what do we know? their labs out. roche is based in germany where theirlabs are, so out. roche is based in germany where their labs are, so we are in a very, very concerning is about this position to roll it out to the public and have those tests ready to year. yes, good morning, a go. are they available to buy, for terrifying ordeal for dele alli and the government survive? —— to buy?” his brother and their respective partners who are sharing a lockdown within a house in london. police stand they have onlyjust been said they were called to a house at approved by phe but they will be available for the uk government to around 12:35 a.m., and two men broke buy. i have to be cautious while into the house and then threatened discussions are going on, we need to get the right number and get them alli at knifepoint. alli received a quickly, but yes, they are available. when do you think they punch and both he and another man will be first available to whichever did receive facial injuries but didn't require hospital treatment. group it is that is deemed to be needing them first? well, quite
6:11 am
the two men left with jewellery, rightly i understand why you ask including watchers. alli has handed that but i can't give you an exact cctv footage from his house to the answer. what i can say is we have them through the phe safety and police. —— including wristwatches. effectiveness test as quickly as we thank you, my, we will see you could while making sure they meet later. standards. we are now moving as fast there's a warning that it could be as we can to discuss with roche the many months before routine nhs services in england get back to normal. a number of healthcare charities purchasing of those. but i can't will tell mps today that more give you an exact date on when we clarity is needed on which services are reopening and how. will be able to start rolling them here's our health out. i know the health secretary is correspondent, lauren moss. is this the new normal? since the keen to get this out and being used start of the coronavirus pandemic, as quickly as possible, because it will make a big difference. although the royal berkshire hospital has been using artificial intelligence the science is not 100% settled at to process brain scans undiagnosed rotations. it's one of the way to the science is not 100% settled at the moment, the science is indicating that if you have had the disease, you have a degree of mark the nhs is adapting to treat patients faster. but figures to be immunity from either getting it again or passing it on. that degree released are expected to show a of immunity is still being scientifically debated. but what that means if you have a level of significant drop in a&e visits. released are expected to show a significant drop in a&e visitsm you are concerned about a stroke, immunity can genuinely change how heart attack or perhaps cancer, do people work because you can go back
6:12 am
come forward. at the same time, the to work knowing you will not get it again and you will not be at risk to nhs will be redesigning the way services are offered to keep them others. i want to talk you about the safe. some trusts start nonurgent growing concern of what has happened and is happening in care homes. can care, there are concerns of a backlog. roxanne had stomach pain you explain to me why it was ever for several months but her a cce pta ble you explain to me why it was ever acceptable for elderly people who colonoscopy was postponed in april. had tested positive to coronavirus or his status was unknown, to be allowed to go back into care homes? it's kind of like before the covid—19 situation, it was like, well, there's a number of points right, 0k, go to the doctor, see there. firstly, we have seen the your doctor, get a referral and your prime minister, as he has said quite rightly, that there have been too appointment. now the appointments many deaths in care homes and every are not happening. i'm sure there one of those debts i think the are not happening. i'm sure there are many people in the same boat as latest figures are 8313 in england me but are all thinking the same and wales taking you to about me thing and wondering what is going on? what happens if it is something first in the statistics, everyone of sinister? it's estimated urgent thoseis first in the statistics, everyone of those is a tragedy —— taking you to cancer referrals have fallen by 70% since the outbreak began, which may one. i want to pay tribute to could have consequences. we need to make more and more people survived the workers who have done so much to ca re the workers who have done so much to care for residents and patients cancer through early diagnosis. clearly people are delaying going to rightly. so in pmq is yesterday,
6:13 am
theirgp and clearly people are delaying going to their gp and delay in getting into their gp and delay in getting into the system, it isn't going to help at all, it's going to make things that focused on public health worse. thanks including the health england guidance on the 25th of february. this was before we moved foundation safe restoring health services would take many months and coronavirus is still a major threat. services may be reopening now, but into the containment phase. the for those who have already waited, advice was there was no community it will be difficult if the transmission of the disease are that uncertainty it will be difficult if the u ncerta i nty lasts it will be difficult if the uncertainty lasts any longer. stage and therefore it was contained lauren moss, bbc news. in spain, the pandemic within small groups of people who we is being brought under control, knew and had contact raised and but there are concerns about the sheer number of medical identified. when we changed on the workers who've been 13th of march to the delay phase, exposed to the virus. almost 50,000 spanish health staff are known to have been affected and they now account for one in two recognising some community new cases being detected transmission was beginning to take in the country. place, that is when guidelines were put in place for care homes in terms 0ur europe correspondent of limiting but all but essential damian grammaticas reports. visitors and the care home strategy in madrid's puerta de hierro hospital, applause — not to thank the medics, that was put in place. any decision but from them. to discharge with a clinical one to console the family made by the nhs and care homes, ofjavier ruiz, a porter, where they had someone who was one of two workers here who've lost their lives to covid—19. in this hospital, 200 return and had potentially had come out of 5,000 staff
6:14 am
have caught the virus. into co nta ct return and had potentially had come into contact with covid—19, they had isolation rooms set up to ensure across spain, more than they didn't come into contact with 50 medics have died. other residents. can i come back to my original question? one of the two months into this crisis, things important here as you require it's becoming evident in spain people to use common sense in their it's notjust the toll covid—19 has taken on patients, normal lives in relation to social but on medical workers too. distancing, all sorts of things. common sense dictates that surely spain has started testing them that it was never right to release all and is revealing just how many have been infected. someone that it was never right to release someone from hospital into a care when there was such a pressure home who was positive with coming from the people that got infected in the community, they did not test us, coronavirus. it was never right. and but now the whole country is testing, i noticed then it was on april 15 every single one. even if we haven't had any symptoms at all. that the government said there would so now that's why there's a lot now be a policy of testing or of cases being reported. residence for covid—19 prior to covid—19 patients admission to care homes. that was require close contact. it's why the risks are so high. april 15. why was it acceptable before then? ride. iwasjust the line on the floor is how april 15. why was it acceptable before then? ride. i wasjust coming onto the april 15 change. when you the doctors try to stay safe. no doctor can cross it without full protection. ask that question. we have the while they tend to patients, staff in the clean zone
6:15 am
pass over what they need. and leaving every room, they disinfect hands. capacity to test everyone going into these are procedures that ca re capacity to test everyone going into care homes, care homes staff and have had to be learned since the outbreak began, and they're followed others. we've been clear throughout scrupulously every single time someone comes out of one of the rooms, so there's no that when this pandemic began we had contagion spread from the dirty areas over limited testing capacity. some countries, germany, being the there to the clean ones here. obvious example had high capacity it's helped ensure no intensive because many of the companies that care staff are among those manufacture these tests were based who've caught the virus. in germany. we have significantly elsewhere, where it's increased those tests since then and harder to control things, have done so. also, if you look back the risks are even greater. to february or so of this year, you will remember and i think your 0scar rodriguez, an emergency programme and others showed it, the doctor, had covid—19. pictures from hospitals in italy and he's one of around 50,000 some hospitals in spain, showing the medical workers in spain to catch it. italian health system overwhelmed with people from the community, now back on callouts people from care homes, unable to to old people's homes, he takes the same precautions get in and be treated or being as the intensive care doctors. translation: i feel bad. treated in corridors because their health system had been overwhelmed. we don't want to be
6:16 am
the european champions when it one of the key things we did for comes to infected ca re medical workers. one of the key things we did for care homes residence and everyone it's because we have was make sure that the nhs always had the capacity... but it was been exposed so much. at another hospital, a protest. obvious at that point, minister, medics who believe they've been failed. the black bing bags they had to wear to try to stay protected. that one group of people particularly, the elderly, those with those who were most at risk —— this is you? hector castineira says more than 1,000 staff those were the people who were most at the hospital caught the virus. at risk. and that's why we had to his photos include masks issued make sure the nhs was always there to medical workers then for them and treat them, which are withdrawn as unsuitable. we are afraid to go dead. and people from care homes and to work because we the community were able to access don't know if the mask is good or is fake, the community were able to access the nhs care they needed in or if we are appropriately hospital. there is a real risk. if protected agains the virus. we look back to february of this year, when you looked at what is back at the puerta de hierro happening in other countries, that hospital, ordinary wards take the extraordinary the nhs may have been overwhelmed and unable to do that. it's precautions too. absolutely right we focus on care homes, this debate at the moment, full safety gear for this issue, is absolutely right to be debated, to be discussed, and every covid patient. it's right we continue to support translation: they make
6:17 am
miracles, the staff. ca re it's right we continue to support care homes today. you would have we're here on our own without family. these hands consoled us. seen care homes today. you would have seen the announcement by the we don't have the words to thank them. minister of the extra £600 million thanks shared by a grateful going into care homes around nation as spain's medics continue to risk their infection control. while many people help to save others. will embrace the notion of what we damian grammaticas, do next matters a lot now. we're running a report today on bbc bbc news, madrid. brea kfast running a report today on bbc breakfast about those with learning with disabilities who are in care, let's take a look at today's papers. the metro leads on a photo and in homes care alongside the of prime minister borisjohnson walking his dog, dilyn under elderly. now, what we know and as the headline "collared". the paper says mrjohnson was challenged by labour leader been evidenced by the families of some of those who have died, is that sir keir starmer over 10,000 unexplained deaths in care homes. if you have a disability, you are not automatically entitled to a the times is leading on the news that a so—called "game—changing" test, which can tell if you've already had covid—19, test. whereas elderly people in the has been given the go ahead same environment are. how is that by public health england. the sun's front page story is that england footballer dele alli was beaten and robbed by two men carrying knives. acceptable? the paper says the robbers stole watches and jewellery. well, i saw your report on your and the independent‘s website programme earlier highlighting is leading on a story about a new disease linked exactly that. at the moment the advice on testing, now we have that to coronavirus, which doctors increased capacity, has been based on the clinical and medical advice
6:18 am
we are being given on who is most believe is affecting up vulnerable and who needs those to to 100 children in the uk. most. the first i had scene of that it's being likened to kawasaki report this morning, and it is disease, which causes blood vessels to swell. certainly something eye and the social care minister will be looking at extremely closely. the first report i saw was this morning and it's absolutely right that we look at that very carefully. edward argar talking to a gp at 6:30am. we will ask questions about that and see how it presents. taking a look at the thank you very much for your time this morning. the health minister inside pages. i am in a chipper mood speaking to this morning. why is that? i've us from westminster. there's a warning that it could be played golf yesterday. got out on the golf course. lots of people. many months before routine thousands according to the guardian. nhs services in england get back to normal. " reacquainted with the reassuring a number of health care charities will tell mps today swish and snap of clubs on—ball." that more clarity is needed on which services are re—opening and how. we're nowjoined by cancer care this is a picture of an 18 specialist karol sikora. i treatment is a high priority of handicapper out in... ed sanderson yours. it is something we have been talking about. what are your big is out there. apparently he went out concerns now about people not being so is out there. apparently he went out so happy to be out of date weeks of

the next week. this story is from the guardian. this is about cheese because any delay with cancer means eating in france and the french are it spreads from the primary site, officially trying to get more people to eat more of their own home made breast, lung, prostate, and so on, cheese, for obvious reasons, because a lot of producers say they have too to other tissues and lymph nodes around the body, that is called u pwa rd much in stock. what have they got around the body, that is called upward stage migration, a very technical term that means spreading. excess of? i love a bit of cheese. it means it is more difficult to treat when it is spread, the outlook is boring. so we have to get going. producers of rock the and others and there are signs we are getting going, which is great. we'vejust have hit by a 60% drop in sales. it been talking to the health minister, amounts to £139 million of business. edward argar, about the latest officially they are saying that they information on antibody tests, the need to have a policy because the test that show whether or not you have had coronavirus. no clarity as yet as to when the first tests will be done or when people can receive producers of milk, cheese isn'tjust them, but there has been approval of food, they say, it is part of them. what is your attitude to this, france's identity, its heritage and how helpful will these tests be? the history and it is special. that is tests exist, they have existed for an inspiring speech from a food two months, we tested our staff maker. i'm in. i love a bit of blue nearly six weeks ago. we are doing another round of testing. we have
6:21 am
cheese. a bit of happiness, again. that un— validated test from korea. this is what the government has made that is a four week old egyptian clear, that these are 100% accurate gosling taking tentative steps. whereas once before have fallen down there hampden park in east sussex. whenever a have been walking along in terms of returning accurate the canals or running along the results. exactly. we tested it, we ca nals the canals or running along the canals they have seen lots of goslings out and it brings joy. it's validated it, it was validated in worth saying, looking out the germany the week before, so we windows briefly, it looks like needed to get going. it doesn't beautiful morning. i don't know where it is where you are, matt will matter who is manufacturing it, whether it is korean or german, we have the details a little later on. it is 21 minutes past six. have to move forward. it is exactly people with learning disabilities like the virus testing, it doesn't in england could be at greater risk during the pandemic, seem according to figures seen by bbc like the virus testing, it doesn't seem to be a co—ordinated effort. brea kfast. data from the care quality and there are lots of tracks in commission, which focuses on care settings where people with learning there. if we're going to get out of disabilities may live, shows an increase in the number locked down a logical way rather of deaths last month, compared with the same than a hot release of the virus we period last year. but while elderly people have got to be measuring everything, are automatically entitled to be tested for covid—19, people with a learning disability are not, as breakfast‘s jayne statistics, the incidence, mortality, and, more importantly, where the virus is in the community and the only way to find that is by mccubbin has been finding out. testing both for the virus and for the antibodies to the virus. just
6:22 am
briefly, just because you have when they were born they both defied the odds. i've alwaysjust a thought tested and you have these numbers, of what use is that? it's a very little use to the individual. it in the nicest person i've ever met. gives us in the health system and a lot of data about where the virus is and how it's moving the community. and we miss him already. i'd bet you foran and how it's moving the community. for an individual, a loss of talk do. the families were told they'd about immuno privilege, the idea that you convert and have antibodies never be able to live full lives. and you are released and you can go she just absolutely blossomed into and you are released and you can go and kiss your grandchildren, go an independent young lady who across international borders with everybody loved because he has such a kind, caring nature. but with immunity, that is not likely to happen. the who want to go —— support they had lived happy lives. kaesler, by riley. because we don't how long the immunity will last the nigel married anne, laura worked in more we don't know what level of a charity shop, but then covid antibody you have to have before you confer immunity on someone. so struck and they both died far from moving forward requires a better home in hospital. he said on the day understanding of the immune system he died he wanted to come home and, andi understanding of the immune system and ijust understanding of the immune system and i just hope understanding of the immune system and ijust hope the pandemic will be you know, we couldn't do anything over before we need a vaccine and about that. it's very sad. as a mum, before we actually need to work this out. but, at the moment, it is fa ntastically that's the hardest thing i've ever out. but, at the moment, it is fantastically useful to work out how had to do, you know, when your child the pandemic is moving forward. is ringing to say will you please
6:23 am
come and see me and you can't go. cancer ca re the pandemic is moving forward. cancer care specialist. but... i have stop there. sorry. and sally warren from the king's fund, a think—tank specialising in health policy, nigel and laura are just who is in winchester. thank you for talking to us this but... i have stop there. sorry. nigel and laura arejust two people with learning disabilities who have morning, sally warren. we have been talking about these antibody tests. died from covid—19, but the question being asked is how many more? we've how important is it to get access to learned that there were 175% more these tests? we did speak to the deaths and places that can support people with learning disabilities last month than reported in the same minister earlier and we don't know exactly when they will be rolled out period last year. that compares to a when someone will have them, how important is it in terms of getting 7596 period last year. that compares to a 75% increase in deaths in the total the nhs back to the levels that are co mforta ble the nhs back to the levels that are comfortable for those who are population. hello, everybody! working there and those who potentially will be treated? having gillian introduces me to the people access to the antibody test is important for the long—term strategy who share this house in leicester. they are part of the community for the health anchor service to integrated care group which says reopen. before the antibody test is there is just not enough protection for emma and the rest of the available for everybody what we need to be thinking about is how is residency. it's just, transmission happening in the for emma and the rest of the residency. it'sjust, it's really, community and making sure nhs and really difficult. we've had one social care services are safe for patients and users. so while we side, for example, last week, a don't have a vaccine, while we don't learning disability site, it took seven days for the results to come understand how much transmission there is in the community, we need
6:24 am
through. and that site is only had to be making sure there is enough ppe, there is enough cleaning and the staff tested. and still they are health anchor facilities, there ppe, there is enough cleaning and health anchorfacilities, there is more staff to be able to do that cleaning and more space so that saying that there is no testing for those that live there and verify people can be waiting in moving people with learning this is a —— through healthcare facilities in a way that means they are safe from difficulties that live there. they cross infection. and even to take a have offered them to care homes. it step back, it seems we made a leap with the antibody tests, if and when they come out to be used. are you satisfied that enough testing which is within the social care sector... diagnose people with the virus is it is yes vote old people, why no being done amongst the nhs? across full learning disabilities? there's been no reason given for that. when health and social of the moment there are real struggles with getting access to testing, both for it comes to the very fight to save staff working in the health anchor lives, there are also concerns and system and particularly for social questions. nigel and laura's ca re system and particularly for social care staff, but also people who have families were both asked what they the virus. so what health anchor wish for their relatives care. why don't even know the name of the stuff need is very fast access to not only the test, but also to the doctor spoke to. just said what results and that will enable them to interventions you want it in place for laura? an asset absolutely understand who has been affected. everything. they wonder is that a it's also really important that alonso testing there is a question they would have been asked comprehensive tracing system and if they had not had a learning it's really important that the disability? no, i don't think it government works with all expert
6:25 am
would, i don't think it would. we partners, including local government, to put in place a proper seen would, i don't think it would. we seen exclusive research by learning disability england which shows do tracing system that allows us to understand who has the virus, who have they been in contact with, and not resuscitate orders are appearing in medical notes without families then advise those individuals to isolate so they are minimising how even been consulted. and most of many other people they may in fact. those people are non— verbal. and a quick word, we spoke to a gp earlier this morning who, withjoy, people who are non—verbal can't a big smile on herface, said she actually speak out. it has to be has been much busier than the last few days compared to last week said these families are full of because people are getting in touch praise for the compassion of nurses who cared for their loved ones when about treatment when they have been they could not be there. but they avoiding gp surgeries. the same has been the case for those avoiding are aware this is a vulnerable group hospitals. what treatments, what facing huge health inequalities and covid has hit hard. how hard we health issues and treatment backlogs are you anticipating now? so i think don't yet know. the government has promised to publish data later we are anticipating a wide range of today. it just promised to publish data later today. itjust seems like the people backlogs and unmet need for health with learning disabilities have been and care needs. what's happened with put to the back of the queue and health and care for the pandemic is they will be the last group to be they really turned off an awful lot of more routine services to focus on looked into. they want full respect critical care support for people for this community, in life, in with covid. that means we have care, and in death. and as hard as people with needs before it struck, so
6:26 am
it was that they never got to say people with needs before it struck, so there may have been a waiting list for surgeries, we then have goodbye to her, a new that the needs that have developed during the nurses were with her and they were covid period, both from people playing disney songs, because she having covid and the rehab and loved disney. and they were just support they need, but also some of the wider health implications from the wider health implications from the lockdown, example mental health wonderful. needs. what we will find is a huge as is often the case, we need to say range of what health issues the nhs a big thank you to nigel and laura's will need to address and respond to families were telling their stories overtime. as important to say that to us. such an important issue and just be about hospital care where we oui’ to us. such an important issue and our thanks to them for sharing with tend to have really good data so we will talk about waiting list. it us. our thanks to them for sharing with us. 26 minutes past six is the time. will talk about waiting list. it will also be in a mental health let's talk to matt, time to find out services, and our community health services, so how have health what's happening with the weather. visitors been supporting new mothers it was very, very chilly last night. i'm a bit confused, different coats in our primary care services. where families have been able to keep up and layers going on. that is one of with immunisations of vaccines with small children, et cetera. we can the joys of and layers going on. that is one of thejoys of spring. and layers going on. that is one of the joys of spring. we get a taste of winter, taste of summer, one expect right across the board quite after the other. we will eventually a high level of or —— demand for get there. it was cold yesterday, a services. that is why the king's cold night last night as well. today fund, health foundation, and a local will be largely dry across the trust is saying we think it will country once again with some sunny ta ke spells, maybe not actually this trust is saying we think it will take many, many months for services to reopen. they can start to do that afternoon as it was yesterday afternoon. but we certainly begin on now as we begin to get over the afternoon. but we certainly begin on a very cold note, northern ireland first pick, but it will take many

6:33 am
in the face of criticism weeks. then she came to see me and i that the sector has been neglected. really felt for her. i could understand the predicament but we hear the stories of two people, laura and nigel still, the doors may be closed but who died with coronavirus — behind them we are still working. this programme's seen new figures which suggest those with learning please come and see us. it is very disabilities could be at greater risk during the pandemic. sad. this is what you were fearing, wasn't it, with this lady with the england midfielder dele alli is held at knife—point, during a burglary at his home. lumps in her breast. this is what jewellery was stolen and alli was punched during the incident, at his house in north london, you were fearing. what other symptoms have been presented to you, ailments that have been ignored?‘ suffering minorfacial injuries. it's thursday, may the 1ath. lot of people have tried to do diy our top story... a test which can tell whether you've radical treatments, which i don't mind, but if they had cuts or burns, ever been infected with coronavirus has been approved by health officials in england. the test looks for antibodies brands need to be dealt with quickly in the bloodstream and could give or they will scar, people have had doctors a better idea of how many changes in bowel habits, they people have been infected. thought we will only have lockdown let's get more on this now from our for a little while. as doctors, we medical correspondent fergus walsh. call them red flags, those of the red flags we tell people not to good medical correspondent fergus walsh. morning. ne ignore. if you are under the age of start good morning. never a bad thing to start with the basics. what is this 55 and having read or heartburn or coughing up blood, orfeeling test? so this is a test which will
6:34 am
exhausted or suddenly losing weight tell you whether or not you have without reason, don't ignore those antibodies in your blood to symptoms. you should be picking up the phone and speaking to your coronavirus. it will mean that at some point in the last few months doctor. i'm going to read some you will have come across the questions sent in by our viewers. but talking about antibody test infection. you may, like many today, the idea that the government people, not had any symptoms at all has given official approval, public but it will tell you, in your blood health england, has given official you will have built up antibodies. approval to an antibody test, what do you know about this? have you it needs to be done, the test at been using them and what about their reliability? there are two antibody least 1a days, ideally 21 days after tests that are available, so, they you have had an infection for those antibodies to build up. it is not area bit like tests that are available, so, they the same as all those tests the are a bit like having pregnancy tests. you take a sample of a blood government bought in late march, the tests. you take a sample of a blood test usually from the tip of the more than 3 million of them that finger and put it into the reader in solution and leave it for ten turned out to be not very accurate. minutes. in our private surgery they were finger prick test. this is where i work in bucks we have been a blood test so you will need to go using them and the uptake has gone through the roof because people are toa a blood test so you will need to go to a pharmacist, doctor or hospital quite keen to know —— our surgery in to a pharmacist, doctor or hospital to get this blood test. so what is the use in knowing that you did have the use in knowing that you did have the virus? how is it useful? it
6:35 am
could be incredibly useful because it will tell us, first of all, just buckinghamshire. governments as they how many people in the population are reliable, but in medicine have had coronavirus. the estimates nothing is ever 100% effective. this protest ta kes nothing is ever 100% effective. this protest takes ten minutes, and you can get false positives or negatives are that between a% and 10% at the moment, we're still throughout the uk. but if we could collecting data, but it is quite do hundreds and thousands of these effective and can put people's minds tests a day then the swiss at rest. however, having that test pharmaceutical company that is coming up with it says it can does not mean you can government rules. social distancing, making provide these in volume, then we can sure you cover your face if you cough or use your elbow, making sure get a really accurate idea of who you are keeping vulnerable people has had it. and here is the thing, away from you, all of those things if you have antibodies in your still have to be in place. and we blood, does that mean you are should make clear that professor immune? that is the uncertainty john newton, the national about this. because simply having co—ordinator of the coronavirus antibodies in your blood does not testing programme has said the test mean for certain that if you get may indicate some immunity to future rei nfected mean for certain that if you get reinfected that it will protect you, infection, although we don't know how to what extent those antibodies or how long that protection will indicate immunity yet stop also, he last. so we will get that knowledge
6:36 am
in the months ahead, but for now has said as well that this new test simply having an antibody positive by roche that we heard overnight has test will not for certain tell you a specificity of 100%, 100%, so they you are completely protected. but you are completely protected. but you may well be. we were speaking to the health minister a few moments are quite confident that this test ago, asking whether the stocks is reliable. that has been the exist, where are these tests? what problem, hasn't it? finding something that is reliable enough to do we know about that? it is a huge be used across the world. something that is reliable enough to be used across the worldlj something that is reliable enough to be used across the world. i know it is difficult to say that word swiss pharmaceutical company and its because i can't say it. it is, it's uk branch has said it is ready to provide hundreds of thousands of farfrom tests of, to the uk. once it goes because i can't say it. it is, it's far from easy to find it. because i can't say it. it is, it's farfrom easy to find it. it's because i can't say it. it is, it's far from easy to find it. it's a good test and it can put people's through the laboratory machines, uk laboratories are set up to deal with mind at rest but be cautious about it. it should, in theory be possible the results. thank you for sharing the results. thank you for sharing the difficulty about the word stop these words get to us in the morning but can we talk about children? to roll this out very quickly. that there have been lots of reports would allow borisjohnson to fulfil around about how children may not his promise that we would move up to transmit the disease or are 200,000 tests a day. all these
6:37 am

6:50 am
and down, all the way down! about who is most vulnerable, who and a big clap at the top! needs testing the most? he said it and even the way we exercise has changed. bootcamp instructors becky and katie are in virtual is something i and my colleague will classes on zoom. the first week, a bit nervous, not great be looking into extremely closely. with technology, i'm not gonna lie so there were a few little it is absolutely right we look at it teething problems very carefully. ok, the government is going to look at it very but i got it sussed. carefully, what does that mean in practice to you? thank you for and it's so lovely seeing all our members' faces. from their homes and reading they are working out with people from as far afield as ireland getting me on. there is a lot of and canada. and rest! variability in terms of what is well done, everyone! happening in care homes but there is do you think this is the fitness industry changed no doubt people living in care forever? a lot of our members settings are additionally vulnerable are really happy that they can do five bootcamps a week and people with learning as opposed to only being able disabilities are additionally vulnerable and i think testing to make it up should be available and it should be to the field once or twice, so it's actually suiting people's lifestyles. done on a regular basis. what i know the under—25s may be most financially vulnerable in this is there is a huge amount of crisis, but they are using variability in terms of what is technology to open up being done and certainly locally to new opportunities, and now have more time to try hear, care homes staff and residents out new strokes. are being offered regular testing and in some areas when they are
6:51 am
sarah corker, bbc news. asymptomatic. some of it is down to local practice but it would help if gorgeous pictures. it is ten minutes the government were really clear on to seven. this, that the most vulnerable need to be tested and need to be tested many challenges for people in regularly. in addition to the carers england at the moment. especially those trying to get childcare back need the right sort of personal protective equipment to make sure in place. that is what sean is the infection is not being passed on looking at. other all changing, in the environment where people are in place. that is what sean is looking at. otherall changing, have they changed, how easy is it to get living in close proximity. why do a childminder back into work? you think this is being left so low it's been a hectic few days for the childcare industry — and all those parents relying on it down on the list? when you hear from for going back to work — sara and look at the report we just and the businesses who need those people working. trying to work out when they can saw, it is pretty obvious it is not open safely and at what point they just elderly people. if you are can actually do that. the knock—on effect for parents who are looking to go back to work and need the looking at care home settings, it is not just elderly childcare, businesses who need the looking at care home settings, it is notjust elderly people who are pa rents to childcare, businesses who need the parents to be back in work. the vulnerable, it is those who cannot latest we have on this. communicate as effectively who need that extra care and you know this? after some confusion at the start of the week, absolutely, and as the parent of a the latest is that childminders in england could re—open yesterday if they care for children 19—year—old with severe learning from one household. the plan is for others to open disabilities and complex health with more children from june 1. problems, i live with, the sort of, registered childminders across the uk have either been closed or providing care recognition that people have this
6:52 am
for vulnerable children or children of key workers and this remains the case in wales, additional vulnerability and do need to be prioritised. so absolutely, i scotland, and northern ireland. think understandably at the start of the pandemic the focus and priority was on our intensive care units and creating capacity in hospitals. but, rebecca martland a childminder you know, quite obviously people who are vulnerable and living in care joins us from worthing. settings needed to be protected and good morning to you, rebecca. good still need to be protected, we are not out of this yet. and as the data morning. what's this week been like? is starting to indicate, there is mad, think. so informationjust now, potentially more deaths than is acceptable. i think the only worry i changing a very short notice. we got the final confirmation at 6:30pm have though, we are also seeing, as tuesday that we could open on a practising gp, i wednesday, which is just, have though, we are also seeing, as a practising gp, lam tuesday that we could open on wednesday, which isjust, frankly, have though, we are also seeing, as a practising gp, i am seen not as many people coming forward with the ridiculous. so it's been mad. so you sorts of illnesses they would have the option of taking children normally present with. and again, from one household and you could be for people with a learning disability, that is a real worry, we open any time now. are you going to don't want to see late presentations do that? no, no, i'm not. it's not of other infections or late presentations of cancer, and we want fairon the
6:53 am
do that? no, no, i'm not. it's not fair on the children that eye look after. how do you pick which family people to have their annual health check stub because it is a way of would be eligible? it's too short proactively spotting what health risks people have who are not that notice. they are going to need preparation, they're going to need able to communicate their needs. so if there are people out there talking to in terms of what's been feeling unwell, or family carers are happening and what's going to thinking somebody is not quite happen. for them it's quite a right, iwant thinking somebody is not quite right, i want to encourage them to significant period in their life contact their gp. we have got they have been at home for seven capacity and we want to hear from weeks with their parents, for most people who are not feeling well. of the time. so they are going to need to have time to adjust and so sara, dominic talked about being do i. basically. i think proactive, what practical measures would you like to see brought in? the health minister said they will need to have time to adjust and so do i. basically. ithink that is need to have time to adjust and so do i. basically. i think that is the key bit. a lot of childminders look into it, but in terms of around the country will hear you say practical measures that would make so around the country will hear you say so do i. we have a potentialjune people's situations in those care one date were childminders may be homes better, what would you like to able to reopen and take on all the children they were looking after happen from today on?” previously. have you got everything homes better, what would you like to happen from today on? i would like the government to stop talking and i you need in place and access to would like them to act. i would like everything you need to be able to do them to publish the figures of the number of people who have died with that? not yet. which is one of the learning disabilities and all reasons why i am not opening this week. only time to plan. a need to autistic people across care settings and hospitals today and i want them think about my policies and to ensure people and staff are given
6:54 am
procedures that will need to be changed and adapted. they need to the appropriate protection in these homes. it is not that difficult to think about the layout of my house do. there is a wilful abstinence and how i will keep my family safe going on here, which is atrocious. as well as the children. we've had we do understand, sara. nhs england some guidelines on cleaning and hygiene, but it is very different in has responded and said it will publish verified data on this today. a home environment compared to being ina a home environment compared to being in a nursery or preschool. i've got i would be interested, dominic as to ornaments, soft furnishings, my own what you think this data will show thatis what you think this data will show that is different in terms of family to take into consideration. pattern, obviously the numbers will and i'm going to have to find incorporate more settings than just somewhere to store the toys that we ca re incorporate more settings than just care homes, ijust wonder what it would actually say to you that would not going to be using. i've got a of toys, things like dressing up change any action by the government clothes and things like that the present quite a challenge on a daily or make the government move more quickly on this? i don't know how it basis if we have got to do a deep clea n basis if we have got to do a deep clean every day to keep ourselves is going to be different to the cqc and the children safe. bit of a data and i haven't seen the cqc data snapshot, rebecca. never mind the yet. i think the important thing financial aspect of all of this as with data is the analysis that comes well, but just getting financial aspect of all of this as well, butjust getting all of those with data is the analysis that comes with it. pure numbers are not enough things ready and i would imagine it will be quite a different world for to tell us what we need to know to
6:55 am

7:15 am
yet, haven't spoken to the school. i only had two more in my bag and i think it's personal preference and i wa nted only had two more in my bag and i wanted to make the connection and see it going in the air and going think it's personal preference and i think personally my daughter should forwards, so i was delighted to see it go up in the air. i saw it bounce find it quite difficult. she is very and it was heading towards the social. that is basically the only green. it was quite bright, so i thing she is missing from school didn't see it roll onto the green currently. we are homeschooling her. she is missing herfriends but i itself. i was delighted i hadn't think even if we centre it would be really difficult for her. she likes lost it. then i thought maybe that social interactions so having to might be on the green. so i walked explain to her that you can go to up might be on the green. so i walked up and getting closer and closer and school but have to stay two metres away from your friends, ijust one i couldn't see the ball anywhere. i —— worry it's the mental health was getting a bit more annoyed at aspect of it and i think i will that point. i couldn't see it on the speak to the school just green and started searching around in the fringes and the rough and i aspect of it and i think i will speak to the schooljust in case. but currently we have decided that she won't be going back. letters thought, why not? i will have a look over my shoulder and see if it is in introduce simon kidwell, the head the whole and i could see the ball teacher of hartford manor primary bowing up school and nursery. thanks for being the whole and i could see the ball popping up because it was caught in with us. we were trying to connect you so you would not have heard the inverted cup. it was absolutely everything rebecca is saying. a mad. i was completely delirious. i pa rent everything rebecca is saying. a parent with three children, got the telephone out and started 15—year—old and the contentious filming it. aird, i am going to ask issueis 15—year—old and the contentious issue is whether or not to send the five—year—old back to school. and
7:16 am
what rebecca is a mother is concerned about is the fact that the geeky question. quick answer. what club? how long was the hole? it five—year—old simply can't socially distance. it is not practical to expect them to stay two metres away was 176 yards and i had a four from each other or to understand that that's the new norm. so worries hybrid and it bounced up on the about her child's mental health and green. it was not the cleanest of think she would be better off at hits, but it worked. it certainly home. what you say to that?” think she would be better off at home. what you say to that? i think we can't socially distance with children whether they are free or 16 did. what was the secret, how have full top my school has had up to 14 you been in lockdown honing your children coming in and we can't skills? what have you been doing to social distance with 14 children and three star. it is impossible. we maintain that swing? nothing, to be need to hear from the government why honest. i did seven and a half weeks it safe that children who can't of not touching a golf club and then socially distance and go to school. you have laid it out very plainly a lot of visualisation last night with tony when we were discussing there. the guidelines that could our anticipated first round of golf. perhaps come in, smaller class we were having a few drinks and sizes, staggered times, starting chatting about it. i hadn't swung a times, is that simply not practical enough? yeah, some good guidance has clu b chatting about it. i hadn't swung a club until literally arriving and come out from government, they talk one practice swing and then i hit about limiting class sizes to fit it. unbelievable. it is very much dean, children staying in a bubble and not mixing with other children,
7:17 am
true, charlie. we will definitely however part of the guidance, especially guidance around our early believe you. do you think it is years, are incompatible and it is attitude, then? maybe you went back clearly the person who wrote the not overthinking it and quite relaxed and that could be the guidance doesn't really understand what a reception or a nursery secret? i was just classroom looks like. simon, what relaxed and that could be the secret? i wasjust delighted to be indication have you been given that outside. the atmosphere on the the unions or representatives for course was incredible. everybody was in sucha education have been talking to course was incredible. everybody was in such a great mood and i really people like you who are actually at didn't care how i got on or played. the sharp end, so to speak, dealing i was just happy to be there. so, with this? i'm part of the national yes, maybe. having said that on the executive and we meet regularly, second hole i knocked my tee shot twice a week with colleagues, we have up to 300 people on a zoom: tuesday. we are talking all the time out of bounds. it might have been a flu ke, out of bounds. it might have been a to our union. our union has not been fluke, then? what was it like with consulted on the plans the government laid out at 730 on monday the new safety measures in place, like the guard to stop the ball evening. —— 7:30pm. think there is dropping down? that might make it time. they need to go and talk to harderfor dropping down? that might make it harder for the dropping down? that might make it harderfor the ball to dropping down? that might make it harder for the ball to stay in the the unions of the next couple of hole. you couldn't touch the flag? days and make sure 20% of the guidance, which is unworkable, can be fixed. simon, it is jolly absolutely fine. tony, who i was guidance, which is unworkable, can be fixed. simon, it isjolly in guidance, which is unworkable, can playing with, we are in the same be fixed. simon, it is jolly in the video. your opening comments a household and we had been doing lockdown for the past eight weeks. moment ago, that you see it is impossible to stop children from but everyone kept their distance and
7:18 am
interacting as they normally would. the atmosphere was that everybody we get to june was chatting away. i didn't have to interacting as they normally would. we get tojune one and you are being buy drinks in the clubhouse because told by your local authority that your school should be opening. the bar was closed! it was a great you've got the guidelines, you have atmosphere and the course was in been told what to do, do you as a incredible condition. it was just an head teacher, do you have the right to just say no, my school stays unbelievable day and one that i will never forget. congratulations. it would have been a cheap date with shut? i didn't say my school stays the clubhouse close. you did not shut. i said that social distancing have to follow that tradition of is impossible and the guidance buying a drink for everybody in the alludes to that but it is quite model. i think the way we keep clubhouse after hole in one. we had children in theirfamily model. i think the way we keep children in their family safe is by practising enhanced hygiene within our schools. we have been doing over the last eight weeks, we have had champagne later. fantastic, fully deserved. charlie has got something to say to you. space and nobody has got poorly. it good morning. i have got something is all about enhanced hygiene and written down by way of an official not social distancing, which is a apology. i hereby officially myth. rebecca is listening very closely to what you are saying and she is someone who is yet to be apologise for disbelieving in any convinced that her daughter could go sense, shape or form that he got a back to school safely. how would you hole in one and it was real and well go about, inu her daughter is not done. how about that? who could be going to your school, but there will mad about you with that fantastic be people a similar situation, what here as well? what i did not know
7:19 am
will you be saying to those parents? before, that i know now because a meeting all our parents on friday eve ryo ne before, that i know now because everyone has been lecturing me about through two coffee afternoons it, is that golfers never lie. is that true? that is very true, yes. through two coffee afternoons through singh mann have a 3—step plan around hygiene. the first one is we're going to m—— deploy we know now, congratulations. additional cleaners through the school day, so making sure we are well done, it was fantastic, cleaning down as the day goes ahead. absolutely brilliant. a great feeling. thank you very much, enjoy your day. they are making sure we will take up the water fountains in our school even you, charlie, you couldn't say and put in additional and washing stations because we don't have quite sorry without saying golfers never enough yet. we're going to make sure lie with that little smirk. that our supply chains for the hygiene materials are secure. that i thought it was a fulsome apology for a rare moment. is my 3—step plan to make sure that might, when was the last time you we are ready to open as soon as heard charlie apologise? you have possible. that may not bejune one. got me there. i do not often have a rebecca, does that reassure you at loss of words. golfers never lie. i all? ijust don't rebecca, does that reassure you at all? i just don't think it's plausible that a five—year—old can have never gone in the rough and not be very hygienic or a child that is recounted how many times i have tried to hack it out. of course not. young. i think they are going to forget. and it does make it really see you later. nice having a fun difficult, them not the most hygienic at that age. and i think
7:20 am
it's just down to the parents at the story like that. end of the day and even if i think with so many of us being the school did put a 3—step rule in forced to live under one like that school i would still be roof for weeks on end, even average—sized families very, very wary about sending are bound to find things around. what age then, she is five difficult from time to time. how would you cope in a household of 1a? now, your daughter, elsa, what age welcome to the world of the shaw family from nottingham. do you think she would be responsible enough or can be relied our reporter quentin rayner upon to be hygienic is not the right has been to meet them. word, but for hand washing and those practices to be in place?” word, but for hand washing and those practices to be in place? i would is a secondary school. obviously they have to be responsible enough. i'm not going to be at school with her so we not going to be at school with her so we need to make sure that she understands that she has got to wash your hands and obviously the social distancing thing, standing two metres away. i think when they are young they are not going to you change from mayhem to come, but understand that so i think they have we are stuck like this every day to be ten or 11, secondary school age, when they can kind of like the first few days of holidays. understand. and obviously before they go you would have to explain to the family live in an eight bedroom them the reasons behind it and i house and are self isolating and wouldn't want to scare her with more lockdown has unlocked some
7:21 am
information regarding coronavirus... revelations. we are having to get to know each other more. i have said (crosstalk). dad it more. simon, a last thought for you. you're talking about all before, more of them are more the time. what indication are you getting about the numbers, intelligent than i assumed because i am having to talk to them more. the percentage—wise, of people who are happy even at this stage that the focus is on hobbies, especially kids would restart? i haven't told gaming. collectively we all play games on the computer. reggie built them yet but i am planning to do so a new computer out of an old one so this weekend was they have a little more information and i have met with that the kids could use it and we them on friday. every parent they have spoken to has kind of prepare play together like that. their fleet themselves for september, that that of vehicles has not moved in weeks. is when they would start thinking normally they would be driven up to about coming in. i'm sure there are three hours a day on school runs up some parents who are wanting to use to three schools. there is one big our school, however i think the food shop a week coming in at £150. majority in my community have made two trolleys at the moment. there their mind up that it is too soon. simon, very interesting talking to are bound to be fall out and bus you. that is simon kidwell. good stops, how do you sort those out? luck in the weeks ahead and all the decisions you are making and working there have been in the past. they with youngsters there. and, rebecca, thank you for your time this get dealt with and we move on. nothing different to normal? no, it morning. it is 7:21. matt will have is like any other family. there are
7:22 am
the weather for us shortly. it a few arguments, but we stick to our would, you think, be sunny in spain at this time of year. you think so. clicks and there is not much drama. it isn't. we are talking to damian it could have been even more crowded for the 1a at 1a. there are two grammaticas now. it is rather soggy. others living elsewhere at the moment. i mustn't laugh. the reason we're there are fears that talking to you with spanish one million under 25s in the uk government has imposed a 1a day could be left unemployed due to the coronavirus quarantine for all arrivals into the country. we have been hearing pandemic. something similar to be proposed in the uk as well. what's happening in many companies have paused spain at the moment? that's exactly recruitment and cut staff numbers — but for some, lockdown has given them time to try something new. here's our business right. from tomorrow, friday, there will be this 1a day quarantine that correspondent, sarah corker. comes into force. i'm talking to you from outside a hospital in madrid. just on the edge of madrid. the reason is that spain is bringing three, two, one, off you go! this income of this quarantine, fitness... because it doesn't want now any new claude, emma, go for it! ..farming... imported cases of the virus, because most of our workers tend to be students. things here are starting to be ..and something far more relaxing. brought under control, the numbers i am spending pretty much
7:23 am
all my days nowjust painting. of patients in hospitals have been for these young people, falling, admissions are dropping off the pandemic has taken their careers on a different path. i've gone from a large office from covid patients and they are in the middle of soho getting a grip on things. but in to being at home painting in my bedroom. last week, cece from london order to keep the progress going left herjob at one of the world's largest advertising firms they are now bringing in this 1a day quarantine, all arrivals from to follow her artistic dreams. this is week one, how are you tomorrow other than absolutely feeling so far in your new life essential medical workers and people transporting food and things like almost? that will have to go through 1a days i definitely don't think of isolation in spain, which is i would have made this decision if it hadn't been really going to mean if you are for lockdown, actually. i have always loved art, i've always thinking of coming on a holiday it loved painting and drawing, doesn't look like it is the right and it was really actually working time for us and it will not be from home, being in lockdown and having that time to really think possible. for the foreseeable future about what it is i want and what it is i enjoy the most. this will be the policy that the spanish government follows. how is history shows that young people may face years of reduced pay that, effectively, it comes down to and limited job prospects long the economy, the conversation is after this economic crisis has building in the uk, it has been passed, so millennials have had no happening in spain. how will that affect the economy and recovery in other choice but to press the pause button on their careers. jobs? enormously is the answer. others, though, have
7:24 am
adapted and innovated there are bits of spain that are in some unexpected ways. absolutely dependent, almost farming is one of the few entirely on the tourist business, industries still recruiting. particularly on the coast, the big in north yorkshire, 22—year—old tom hotels, the big beach resorts. they has diversified his online are going to really struggle. this recruitment platform. is bad news for them. the airlines he's now connecting farmers with fruit and vegetable pickers. and airports as well, obviously. and at the moment we're getting such all of the associated businesses at high demand from students, from people who been furloughed, follow on. they, interestingly, some of those areas are starting to get also from self employed going again, not here in madrid. who are just sat at home now, here we still have tighter and they've had this realisation restrictions. but further afield that they need to make some money where the virus cases have already and they'd love to help the country as well. fallen, they are opening up. so when parts of andalusia, in seville, you have bars and cafe is open and people outside able to eat and drink we have also had people from higher up we have also had people from higher up as well, directors. and gather so they are starting up. but what they really need are the tourist coming back. hotels in those areas are now able to open, but they areas are now able to open, but they are not opening because they are with so time on my hands, i had to saying it's simply worth their while until tourist arrivals start again.
7:25 am
turnit with so time on my hands, i had to turn it into my main business. i have been using my furlough time to tell me, we're one day into the next design new ideas and i have phase of lockdown easing here in the uk and in england, as the lockdown developed monthly kits that could come through your door. and even the way we has eased in spain, how have people exercise has changed. bootcamp instructors becky and katie been reacting to that in terms of are in virtual classes on zoom. fears, another peak, orjoy that the the first week, a bit nervous, not great with technology, economy has got some opportunity to get moving again? well, you have i'm not gonna lie so there were a few little teething problems but i got it sussed. both side—by—side. so what you get, it is so lovely seeing all our in those areas where things have eased, there is obviously delayed. members' faces. there are people going out. people it is so lovely seeing all our members' faces. from their homes and reading are now allowed, in spain, to meet they are working out with people from as far afield in groups of up to ten. so it's very as ireland and canada. and, rest! well done everyone! different to the uk. they can meet do you think this is the fitness in people's homes, they can meet in industry changed forever? a lot of our members are really happy that they can do five cafes, but there is concern because some people are sort of flouting the bootcamps a week as opposed to only being able to make it distancing rules and that is causing up to the field once worries about the risks that's or twice, so it's actually suiting people's lifestyles. the under—25s may be most posing. always good to talk to you. just enjoy the rain there just a financially vulnerable in this crisis, but they are using little bit longer. it looks
