proto-feministt who insist on women having an equal share in what's going on in the woods around nottingham. i'm a bit worried when we try and recover people and tinker with them to make them up-to-date. one of the good things that's been happening in history is, i guess we are always doing it, finding people we have forgotten never knew about. one of the very great things about women's history, for example, which is not a subject when i was at university and now is, through that found women who should've been celebrated but were not. the women codebreakers -- codebreakers. the black american women who worked at nasa whose contributions simply were not recognized. that's one of the useful things has to can do. it can uncover lost heroes and heroines or loss people who really made a difference that which is for some reason there were not paid attention at the time because of who they were, it were not important enough for there were the wrong gender or the came from the wrong social class. that's something we doing a lot of. i do think, there's some wonderful, wonderful biographies being wri

this is keith neal, emeritus professor of epidemiology of infectious diseases at the university of nottinghamcredibly low. the risk is probably more applicable to people going back to work which may not, although your children may go back to school, that doesn't stop people working at home or working in different ways. with covid—19 compliant work premises, that will involve people being at home. so does that then inevitably lead on to a suggestion that the two don't go hand in hand, once kids go back to school, parents don't go back to work, because the government's drive has been to try to get people back into the workplace. i think that has been a drive for various reasons but i think been a drive for various reasons but ithinka been a drive for various reasons but i think a lot of people have found they can work quite happily at home and as someone who used to commute to london from derby, i always used to london from derby, i always used to have a work at home dayjust to give it a break, i think people will ta ke give it a break, i think people will take that opportunity more often, part

let's speak now to professor jonathan ball, professor of molecular virology at the university of nottinghambig step government says it is? the proof of the pudding is in the eating and as your report hinted at, at the moment we have no idea how sensitive or accurate these assays are, there is no data out in the public domain therefore we are a little bit in the dark as to how well they will perform, but make no mistake, certainly having rapid testing out in the community will potentially be a big game changer, particularly if numbers pack up and we need to track rapidly. we were told that back in march by the who who said test, test and test. absolutely. it's the only way that you can identify outbreaks as and when they occur and then trying and control them. as we have started to see as we have come out of social—distancing, the virus doesn't ta ke social—distancing, the virus doesn't take long to start to gather pace and cause problems out in the communities and therefore your ability to going and find out where the virus is circulating is incredibly important. there is the rub because to
