a listen to what he had to say just a month ago we do i can tell you that i hope i've i'm shaking hands can do drugs or i was a whole school the other night i think there are a few there are actually if you credit cards of patients and i sure can't deliver a body you'll be pleased to know that i continue to shape turns and i think it's very important that we get people who can make up their own mother. well johnson's government's been criticized for its response to the coronavirus at 1st they said they wanted to let its bread and they refused to bring any kind of restrictions on trade or travel then they instituted lockdowns but with very mixed messaging the left people confused and even today front line workers say they don't have enough protective equipment and not enough tests are being done the latest bungle is that a set of home test kits millions of test kits which was supposed to help turn the situation around appear to be ineffective and the u.k. is among the top 10 worst affected countries in the world for coronaviruses rights

every hour closely to normal times then she thanked everyone for staying home and then she reminded people that their actions would be remembered together we are tackling this disease and i want to reassure you that if we remain united and resolute then we would overcome it. i hope in the ass to come everyone will be able to take pride in how they responded to this challenge and to finish off her address the queen quoted from a famous old wartime song which goes we'll meet again don't know where don't know when and that's something i think a lot of people around the world can relate to definitely. yes thank you. ok here's some of the other coronavirus headlines making news this hour scotland's chief medical officer has resigned after she was caught visiting her holaday harm

too early to say when coronavirus lockdown measures across the country can be relaxed but policy makers here already exploring new ways to prevent infections wants restrictions lifted one option is a smart foreign app that tracks people's movements and warns them if they've had contact with someone who's tested positive but in germany a dot of protection is a big concern. our mobile phones could become an important weapon in the fight against the corona virus and germany could see the benefits very soon so for developers are working on tracking apps which would enable a loosening of restrictions on movement without compromising data privacy the op registers other smart phones with the op installed on contract people who are in the vicinity of the user for a particular amount of time if the op user test positive for corona all the people they had contact with can be notified and warned the hope is that possible cases of

infection can be isolated more quickly according to calculations however it only works if 60 percent of the population uses the up. back of us as long as it's free and it doesn't come from above i think it's completely ok middle way everyone has a smartphone by now which they use to look at everything with an app that ben registers your location around the clock that's why it makes sense it's what they did in china the data protection laws are far stricter in europe than they are in china however which is why using the app has to be voluntary and anonymous it's not programmed to log the user's location only the distance between them journalist is monitoring the ops development i'm not. in china and what's all it's all crew sure this that the information is only saved on my telephone at 1st it's not uploaded anywhere not stored at a central location somewhere this way if i were to test positive i could then decide to share the information voluntarily and the corona could be launched in

a very high distribution in a very short time of this app and i find this very difficult but i also believe that a mandatory was off the app is also not reasonable or controllable at all and as candy can get there well for millions of christians around the world this week is one of the most important on the religious calendar beginning on palm sunday the holy week leads up to easter when christians believe jesus was resurrected but with churches and other places of worship worship off limits because of the corona virus this year is shaping up to be very different from from usual here's a look now at how many are keeping the faith. can't be seen but the message remains the same. today in the tragedy of a pandemic in the face of the many full securities that have now crumbled in the face of so many hopes betrayed in the sense of abandonment that weighs upon our
