it is happening here. high—end care from surgeon mandana peni but she and her team are under pressure. we have had staff off shielding and we have staff off sick. i have seen some evidence of burn—out, especially within the nursing staff and ijust don't know how much longer we can keep it up. we have two clear beds, down to one now. delays means that when the pandemic ends, so much hard work will begin. it will be a mountain to climb, both in terms of the operational challenge of getting the right care to all those people who have been waiting all this time, but also, i think, what we will find is that clinical teams come across patients who have suffered because they have had to wait longer. emma's not expecting the cavalry to come to the rescue. so tackling the backlog will need innovation. i've done one biopsy now.

professor kingsley akwame is using a new technique for prostate cancer diagnosis. any sharp pain, let me know. no longer the need for a precious operating theatre, it can now be done here. all done! and nursejo is training to do thejob. gosh, they've been waiting so long, some of these patients, but if we can just help to reduce the backlog. it's rewarding, every week we are seeing differences. helping patients. it's the mission statement here, not just for covid, but for everyone. a day after surgery, jill is heading home, back to her own bed. i would recommend it to anybody. get your appointments, get your things done at the hospitals. they have been fantastic here. i am very, very lucky. back on the hills for sam, there is time to reflect. i've seen some phenomenal acts of kindness. there is definitely a desire to get through this altogether. together in a medical landscape utterly transformed by covid—19. jeremy cooke, bbc news, north wales.

various pressures on staff at the hospital, that was jeremy cook reporting. football, and liverpool were in action this evening against rb leipzig in the champions league. the reds cruised to a 2—0 victory, putting their recent poor domestic form behind them. nesta mcgregor watched the action. sometimes when your domestic form is a little below par, all that is needed is a little european getaway. liverpool had tickets for germany but covid meant they were re—routed to budapest. leipzig came closest to opening the scoring, denied only by the post. liverpool's best effort of the half, andy robertson from long range, just inches in it. he's gone for it and he almost got it! liverpool may have been off the boil as of late but mo salah remains red—hot, pouncing on this defensive slip—up. it is salah!

who doesn't miss from there! jurgen klopp elated and probably relieved. minutes later, mane made it two, another error at the back for leipzig. the premier league champions heading back home with two away goals as souvenirs and hopeful of continuing their european adventures. nesta mcgregor, bbc news. that's it. now on bbc one, time for the news where you are. have a very good night. hello and welcome to our look ahead to what the the papers will be bringing us tomorrow. with me are the editor of the political news website, politics home, kate proctor and the broadcaster, john stapleton. tomorrow's front pages, starting with...

lockdown to continue until cases drop below 1,000 a day" is the daily telegraph's understanding of when restrictions will be eased, ahead of borisjohnson publishing an exit plan next week. two jabs for all by august is the headline in the metro, which quotes the head of the vaccination task force as saying that every uk adult may be offered a jab by the autumn. the guardian reports that nearly two million more people are to be put on the shielding list after new research confirms higher coronavirus risk amongst deprived and ethnic minority groups. the i's take is that an oxford breakthrough means more people will be told to shield for six weeks because the identified risks from the virus. and the ft reports that some employers are draughting �*no jab, no job�* contracts.

lots to talk about. welcome to you both. twojobs lots to talk about. welcome to you both. two jobs for all by august that splashed from the metro, especially a lot better from the government and even borisjohnson has been suggesting over the past few months. has been suggesting over the past few months-_ has been suggesting over the past few months. . ., , ., few months. yeah, there was a time where there — few months. yeah, there was a time where there there _ few months. yeah, there was a time where there there was _ few months. yeah, there was a time where there there was mockery - where there there was mockery whether these vaccines would even get off the ground for the health secretary had some pretty vicious briefings again say whether this would actually happen. and now look where we are. this is a great headline. to jab for all by august. this is slightly ahead of initial forecast. this is really important because when you are able to vaccinate, the entire population, that should in theory, if we find the data shows that the vaccine is very effective in slowing down transmission of coronavirus that it means that we get to unlock and possibly get some kind of normal

life back. and this has been going on for a year now. i think people are extremely tired. it's really good sometimes to see these very positive front pages just so you can keep your spirits up a little bit. i keep your spirits up a little bit. i was thinking, i had been with you and john when they announced the roll—out of this vaccine scheme. i'm sure it was, actually. john, the logistical exercise here. it really is something to be applauding, is in a? the metro is pointing out now 8 million people are now resistant to covid in england alone. it’s a covid in england alone. it's a fantastic _ covid in england alone. it's a fantastic achievement - covid in england alone. it's a fantastic achievement for - covid in england alone. it's a fantastic achievement for as | covid in england alone. it's a . fantastic achievement for as you remember i'm sure haven't always been _ remember i'm sure haven't always been that— remember i'm sure haven't always been that praiseworthy of the governments action in this crisis was not — governments action in this crisis was not i — governments action in this crisis was not i think they've messed up quite _ was not i think they've messed up quite a _ was not i think they've messed up quite a bit — was not i think they've messed up quite a bit i— was not i think they've messed up quite a bit. i have to tip my hat to the vaccine — quite a bit. i have to tip my hat to the vaccine programme has been done extremely— the vaccine programme has been done extremely efficiently. most of the rest of _ extremely efficiently. most of the rest of the world is shown the way. i rest of the world is shown the way. i hate _ rest of the world is shown the way. i hate to _ rest of the world is shown the way. i hate to rain— rest of the world is shown the way. i hate to rain on the parade, is terrific— i hate to rain on the parade, is terrific news and it's great the newspapers are giving us some

say look, if you had your vaccination let's get back to work now. the prime minister is been quite hands—off about this. the highway i think has been saying let business decides to start now it seems that some business has already done that. this during the fda, no jab, nojob. it done that. this during the fda, no jab. no job-— jab, no 'ob. it did initially but the ft jab, no job. it did initially but the ft has — jab, no job. it did initially but the ft has really _ jab, no job. it did initially but the ft has really expanded i jab, no job. it did initially but. the ft has really expanded the jab, no job. it did initially but - the ft has really expanded the story and they've got examples of manchester health care which runs more than 200 care homes and they say they won't hire new staff if they refuse to have the vaccine on medical grounds. this is an example of possibly the landscape for working environments to come. the vaccine minister had so many opportunities today to give some kind of government guidance on whether or not it's ok legally to actually ask someone to get a vaccine so that they can go and do theirjob. you're right, it was hands—off. they weren't very keen to make a decision on that apart from just to say well you know, vaccine

isn't mandatory in this country. there is a city of london lawyer quoted in this piece saying you can introduce these kind of contracts they are risky but they are likely to be defensive role in some sectors especially care. still i think the ft is betting on here reporting on this issue that i think is going to develop over the coming weeks. i'm sure it made me care home staff do want to get vaccinated because they want to get vaccinated because they want to get vaccinated because they want to protect themselves and of course naturally the people that they're looking after. it would be a real change of scene if they were required to have a vaccine to do theirjob. required to have a vaccine to do their 'ob. ., �* required to have a vaccine to do their 'ob. . �* ., , ., theirjob. yeah. i'm not sure if all carol workers _ theirjob. yeah. i'm not sure if all carol workers want _ theirjob. yeah. i'm not sure if all carol workers want to. _ theirjob. yeah. i'm not sure if all carol workers want to. because i theirjob. yeah. i'm not sure if all carol workers want to. because itj carol workers want to. because it has been short of a take out what your thought?— has been short of a take out what our thou:ht? ., , ., your thought? know it will be argued that it was discriminate _ your thought? know it will be argued that it was discriminate against - that it was discriminate against certain— that it was discriminate against certain evil who can't have a job or don't _ certain evil who can't have a job or don't want — certain evil who can't have a job or don't want the job for all sorts of reasons— don't want the job for all sorts of reasons including religions. i'm sure _ reasons including religions. i'm sure also— reasons including religions. i'm sure also the trade unions will have a fair— sure also the trade unions will have a fair bit _ sure also the trade unions will have a fair bit to— sure also the trade unions will have a fair bit to say as well. it does

these months without this added protection. actually that people added to the list they might often be people of very low income work. to be told to stay at home now, they should go to work but what if your supermarket worker? what he is supposed to do? might be able to go on the furlough scheme but that only runs until april. i'm sure if you get one of these letters is actually about quite a big dramatic change to your life. about quite a big dramatic change to our life. ~' i. about quite a big dramatic change to our life. ~ ,, �* your life. like you tim, i'm completely _ your life. like you tim, i'm completely puzzled - your life. like you tim, i'm completely puzzled by - your life. like you tim, i'm| completely puzzled by this. your life. like you tim, i'm - completely puzzled by this. we've know _ completely puzzled by this. we've know right from the start that people — know right from the start that people who are overweight how difficult — people who are overweight how difficult they have difficulty overcoming covid. certain ethnic communities are more prone to get it. communities are more prone to get it also— communities are more prone to get it. also people who live in socially deprived _ it. also people who live in socially deprived areas are more prone to get it because _ deprived areas are more prone to get it because of their conditions. my home _ it because of their conditions. my home town — it because of their conditions. my home town i was looking into report tonight— home town i was looking into report tonight saying that something like one and _ tonight saying that something like one and three children live in poverty _ one and three children live in poverty. there are 5000 households that are _

of pressure to perhaps review some of the vaccine ordering that we've had so far. groups one through 9, that might be the case. it's not just the i paper actually the telegraph has a similar story involving the broadcaster sister. she has a learning difficulty and she's not been vaccinated yet. in the eye paper is highlighting a similar situation. the eye paper is highlighting a similarsituation. i the eye paper is highlighting a similar situation. i think this could be revisited. clearly the governments been really fixed. certainly when there was an outcry for teachers to be vaccinated the government didn't move on that at all. it wanted to stick with its initial one through nine group. i think there are some compelling cases moving forward that there should possibly be a rethink for this and phase of the vaccine rollout. , , , ., rollout. very briefly, i saw that interview joe — rollout. very briefly, i saw that interview joe did _ rollout. very briefly, i saw that interview joe did with - rollout. very briefly, i saw that interview joe did with that - rollout. very briefly, i saw that i interview joe did with that moving interviewjoe did with that moving interview— interviewjoe did with that moving interview today about the love for her sister — interview today about the love for her sister was that these learning difficulties. i think she's diabetic as well — difficulties. i think she's diabetic as well. joe pointing out as kate

studies that public health england are looking at the moment that specifically to do with the transmission rate of vaccine. whether the numbers are going down and they're still extremely high when you compare it to hospitalisations going down, death rate going down is it because we've had this very strict lockdown is it because the vaccine as actually had some kind of a fat? there are two studies all of the information is going to into the government very soon as they make their decision on the lockdown process was up this guardian story is saying that early data suggest that the vaccine is working. it saying here that debts of coronavirus have fallen by 62% amongst the over 80 cents the 24th of january which is amongst the over 80 cents the 24th ofjanuary which is a amongst the over 80 cents the 24th of january which is a pretty good statistic. we've only got a little snippet of the story they are i'm sure it's full of the kind of data that people want to know. i would be very reassured by that this vaccine

process has a really good and effective point to it.
