at the walter reed medical centre injust a physician at the walter reed medical centre in just a few briefing out the walter reed medical centre. we have not heard anything about the present's condition since 11 o'clock last night when the president tweeted that he was doing well. his physician did confirm also at the same time that the president was receiving the experimental treatment. so the allies of the world or the walter reed after the president of the united states has spent his first night in hospital for coronavirus, and we will get the very latest on the president's condition and we will bring it to you here live on bbc news. you're watching bbc news. a man has been charged with murder after two men were found shot dead in a car in dudley on wednesday. william henry and brian mcintosh were found dead in a parked vehicle in the brierley hill area of dudley. west midlands police have confirmed that 32 year old jonathan houseman has been charged with both their murders train services in the east and north of scotland will be shutdown from 7pm this evening, following weather w

almost at the same time as that briefing at the walter reed medical centre, a source familiar with i id a little earlier. his medical tea m said a little earlier. his medical team gave us this update in front of the hospital in which he‘s being treated. as reported yesterday we recommend we bring the president up to walter reed as a precautionary measure to provide state—of—the—art monitoring and any care that he may need. just 72 hours into the diagnosis now. the first week of covid and a particular today ten are critical in determining the likely course of this illness. at this time the team andi this illness. at this time the team and i are extremely happy with the progress the president has made. there are not thursday he had a mild cough and some nasal congestion and fatigue all of which are resolving and improving. we are monitoring him very closely for any evidence of complication from either coronavirus illness or the therapies we are prescribing to make him better. we have monitored his cardiac function, his kidney function, liver function all of those are normal. and the pre

out there a long time, referring to is very noisy band of supporters that gathered at the walter reed medical centre they got trump flags, they love our country, i'm about to pay them a surprise visit whereupon the presidential motorcade left the walter reed medical centre and mrtrump in the walter reed medical centre and mr trump in the presidential limo known as the east, he had a cloth mask over his face, the secret service agents were wearing and 95 respirators and he waved to the crowd, many of whom were not wearing a facemask in the motorcade travel about half a mile down the road before circling back and going back to the walter reed medical centre. the point has been made by an attending physician at walter reed, doctorjames philip ‘s, that the presidential suv is hermetically sealed against the possibility of a chemically attacked and thus the risk of covid— infection within it is as high as it gets, according to doctor phillips, and he said the irresponsibility of this as far as the secret service agents in attendance was concerned is astonishing. since mr trump's first tweet announcing he

tweeted a video from hospital saying he's doing well but still expects to remain at the walter reed medical centreng to feel good. you don't know, over the next period of a few days, i guess that's the real test, so we will be seeing what happens over those next couple of days. so we know that president trump has been given two treatments to try to slow the impact of the virus. our health editor, hugh pym, looks at how effective they might be. as the president walked across the white house lawn to the helicopter which would take him to hospital, it wasn't clear what sort of treatment or care he'd require. today, doctors revealed they'd carried out extensive monitoring of donald trump's condition, and the state of his health. we have monitored his cardiac function, his kidney function, his liver function — all of those are normal. and the president this morning is not on oxygen, not having difficulty breathing or walking around the white house medical unit upstairs. the president is getting two experimental therapies which are not routinely available to patients and are still being assessed by clin

barbara, for now, at the walter reed medical centre, thank you. l ethics at new york university grossman school of medicine, arthur caplan, told us why he thought the president has been moved to the walter reed military hospital. i think my guess is it is because his symptoms are worsening and he is in such a high risk group, as you just reported, that they want to be safe. so even though it is a medical unit at the white house, it's not a hospital, and if he's started to show more lethargy, more fever, if they are also looking at it in a 74—year—old man, i think that is what is going on. they are concerned. and as you said, they're giving him experimental antibodies which also they would not do if they were not pretty worried. —— unless they were pretty worried. tell us more about these experimental antibodies. it is a single dose of regeneron, we understand, that he's had. this is a non—approved, experimental medicine, if you will. it tries to take immune building cells that you manufacture... this is not the same as getting the transfusion from

let us cross to the walter reed national medical centre.o get an update on president's condition from his personal physician. we are still meeting that, it is due any minute now. meantime, some of the days other news. the eu president and borisjohnson have agreed to work to get an agreement. borisjohnson says he is still autistic that a trade deal can be agreed. nearly 5 million residents of madrid are confined to their municipality. the first european capital to re—enter lockdown. a powerful storm has caused what i being called the worst floods in living memory in france. the mayor of nice said earlier to bodies had been found. azerbaijan says armenian artillery has been shelling and causing civilian casualties. let as cross live to the walter reed medical centre where donald trump is being treated. we are awaiting that update. remind as what is the last that you heard about the condition of the president? you might hear the pedestrian crossing. we are beside a busy road. the last we heard was that the president was feeling fatigued that h

let us cross to the walter reed medical centre where mrtrump is been the walter reed medical centre whereump is been treated and speak to our correspondence. we know there is no update on what is the mood there? are you seeing support for the president gathering? we might be able to see just behind me there is a group gathered there. there is a pedestrian crossing so you might heara bit there is a pedestrian crossing so you might hear a bit of that as i speak. there is a group of donald trump supporters behind me. they have got their flags out. they look where they are set to camp out for the day. there have been cars coming past honking support as well. not quite as many numbers as we saw may be last night. but it is early here, only just be last night. but it is early here, onlyjust nine be last night. but it is early here, only just nine o'clock. be last night. but it is early here, onlyjust nine o'clock. we will see what the day brings in terms of that. the white house has said that the president could be there for several days and he can actually work from there. can you describe the

walter reed hospital. our correspondent lebo diseko spent the day at the walter reed medical centre, where mr trump is beingated. she spoke to trump supporters there about how they feel about the president's condition. i think you can probably hear some of their enthusiasm larry, some supporters of the president basically telling me that this could happen to anybody. he has a fighter and they think that he will definitely overcome. one man told me that he flew an overnight to show his support for donald john. there is a whole range of different age groups they are, senior citizens, younger people. quite interesting as there have been a few moments of tension with supporters ofjoe biden. i guess that's kind of indicative of some of the passions we see in the country. overall his supporters were really good—natured and telling me that theyjust want him to overcome. and they believe he will do it. my reaction was kind of shocked but then again it seems to be most people are getting it at some point. i guess i was kind not waiting to find out i thought it have it at some point, you know. are you worried? no, it

this is the live scene at the walter reed medical centre where president trump has been treated for it covid—19. his medical team is expected to give an update on his condition in the next couple of minutes. let's go live to our correspondent who is on the scene. what are you hearing about what the president's condition is at this moment ahead of the update? well, nothing other than that statement from the president's position that you mentioned that came out yesterday. they said they were cautiously optimistic. that was at the end of the day. we know the press c0 nfe re nce the end of the day. we know the press conference or update they gave us press conference or update they gave us at the beginning of the day was a very different tone, talking about donald trump being ready to leave the hospital, he apparently said he felt like walking out of there, and his medical team seemed much more upbeat at the start of the day. then of course we had a day full of confusion, mixed messages, contradiction about what exactly the president's condition was, whether or not he had been given oxygen

walter reed medical centre. we will have all the latest updates on his developments.bc news. other news now, and here the prime minister has warned of what he called "bumpy months" ahead — with the prospect of a very tough winter for everyone because of coronavirus. borisjohnson also told the bbc he wanted people to behave "fearlessly but with common sense". labour's accused the government of having "lost control of the virus". here's our political correspondent nick eardley. his report contains some flashing images. a sign of these strange times. the prime minister arriving at the bbc wearing a face mask. getting his temperature checked. coronavirus has changed the way many of us live, but also how he governs. boris johnson‘s strategy is increasingly under scrutiny. it was put to him that some are furious. they're furious at me and they're furious with the government. they are. but... but, but... you know, i've got to tell you, in all candour, it's going to continue to be bumpy through to christmas. it may even be bumpy beyond. there was more optimism about spring. b

earlier his physician gave an update from the walter reed medical centre. physician gave an update fromedical centrem physician gave an update from the walter reed medical centre. it is important to note the president has been fever free for over 2a hours. we remain cautiously optimistic, but he‘s doing great. one of the note. it should be clear that he‘s got plenty of work to get done from the chief of staff. and he‘s doing it. last night he left for the hospital unaided but there was none of his usual bluster and show for the media, and unusual for the usual bluster and show for the media, and unusualfor the president he was wearing a mask. the white house is trying to predict business as usual. mr trump is not transferring powers to the vice president mike pence and he is in charge and he attempted to calm jittery nerves with a message before he left. —— project business as usual. i want to thank everybody for the tremendous support. i‘m going to walter reed hospital. i think i‘m doing very well but we are going to make sure that things work out. the first lady is doing very well, so

spend the next few days... ..a precautionary measure after testing positive... ..at the walter reed medical centreordinary moment in an extraordinary day. the president leaves by marine one from the south lawn, destination walter reed military hospital. i think i'm doing very well, but we're going to make sure that things work out. the first lady doing very well. so thank you very much, i appreciate it, i will never forget it. thank you. but if the symptoms are mild, why is he having to go to hospital — particularly when the white house has its own medical unit with a team of doctors and nurses and a well—equipped surgery? as you know, tonight's al smith dinner... on thursday night, in what now appears to be grim irony, the president made a speech from the white house about the pandemic. the worst was behind us, he said. i just want to say that the end of the pandemic is in sight and next year will be one of the greatest years in the history of our country. the ripples of concern will reach everyone who's been in close contact with the president, not leastjoe biden, who shared a debate stage with

president has now left the white house and is in the care of the medical teams at walter reed medical teams at walter reed medical centrenorth of washington. it is an unbelievable series of developments that have taken place today, two days ago, no—one could have imagined this. but now the president has coronavirus and he is in hospital, and who knows how the election will unfold. let's show you the scene live at the walter reed hospital, near washington, where it isjust after 9pm, and inside that complex my president trump is now beginning his first night in hospital, in a secure part of the hospital —— inside that complex. earlier our washington correspondent, barbara plett usher, outside the walter reed hospital, told us what facilities the president will have at his disposal there. he has settled into the medical executive treatment unit, that is a special unit for vips, presidents in this case, which is pretty self—contained, we are told it has a dedicated doctor, nurse and technician team, trained to shift away from normal hospital work to look after the president when he comes. it has everything he needs there to

circumstances, that marine one would have been taking president trump to the walter reed medical ce ntre trump to the walter reed medical centrerted. donald trump has left the white house, he is on his way to hospital out of an abundance of cautions, the white house is a saying, but an awful lot of unanswered questions as to why the situation has changed so dramatically, so quickly from mild symptoms to the need to hospital for the next few days. that is what we understand is going to happen once he arrives. he will be put in a private suite, of course, as you would expect and he will be kept there for a few days but we don't know very much about what is going to happen once he arrives, do we? there are going to be presumably adequate test undertaking and presumably test they cannot perform in the white house, where there is a fully equipped medical unit and there is another medical unit in the building across from where i am standing. they have office decided it needs the full panoply of a quick and you having a major hospital —— they have obviously decided. that is why, presumably, he has gone here. there are a lot a lot of

speaking outside the walter reed medical centre, dr sean conley attempted to clear up any confusion whyreviously painted such a positive picture of his health. i was trying to reflect the attitude that the team, the president in his course of illness, has had. i didn't want to give any information that might steer the course of illness in another direction and in doing so, it came off that we were trying to hide something which wasn't necessarily true. today he feels well, he's been up and around, the plan is to have an eat and drink, to be up and out of bed as much as possible and be mobile and if you continues to look and feel as well as he does today, the hope is we can plan for a discharge as early as tomorrow to the white house where he can continue his treatment course. earlier, i spoke with our north america correspondent david willis about the president's surprise drive by. the president actually signalling that he was intending to do it in a video that he posted on twitter, basically saying they'd been out there a long time, referring to his very noisy band of supporters that g

what we do know now is that he has been transported to walter reed medical centre.alk fine through the white house to the helicopter on his own, but he will be there cautionary measure according to the white house. during this time we saw thatjoe biden house. during this time we saw that joe biden has house. during this time we saw thatjoe biden has taken down his campaign's his negative advertising right now and what he's going through right now. i think it's too soon to tell. we will have a better idea as the days progress, and as we see how president trump ozment body reacts to the virus. i think we are also good have a better idea when we see vice president pentz and senator kamala harris take the vice president or debate stage on wednesday, but we always say no so much can happen now but does that really minute by minute kind of scenario we are watching —— vice president pence. it really is. we are looking at those pictures of president trump leaving the helicopter, walking to the hospital. what do you make of the correct a few of the past hour or so, the relea

that is president trump speaking in his suite at the walter reed army medical centre.d at the hospital. the president will now start his second night in hospital. so what questions does that video answer and what questions does it not answer. here's our north america correspondent peter bowes. well, i think that video was donald trump being donald trump, taking control of a situation after really a day of and mixed messages, at least in terms of our interpretation of what his doctors were saying and what we heard the white house chief of staff had said in a briefing to reporters. his doctors being very positive, saying he was responding to treatment and that his symptoms were going away. but then we heard from the chief of staff, and a line that he gave in a briefing, which seemed to be more reserved and suggest that the course ahead wasn't so clear and that the president perhaps wasn't out of the woods yet, to interpret those words. well, i think this is now the president taking control. we often say that he describes himself as his best press spokesperson, and i thin

nomia iqbal sent this report from the walter reed medical centre.ame here, wasn't feeling so well, i feel much better now. no big rallies, no crowds of supporters but president trump still has his twitter following inside the hospital. after the chaotic handling of the messaging about his health by his staff yesterday, the president clearly decided to do thejob himself and released a long unscripted update on his and the first lady's health. i want to thank everybody, our first lady is doing well, melania asked me to say something as to the respect she has for our country, the love she has for the country. we are both doing well. melania is really handling it very nicely. he even avoided mentioning china, as he usually does when it comes to the virus. we are going to beat this coronavirus, or whatever you want to call it and beat it soundly. but there were also uncharacteristic signs of hesitancy from a normally bullish president when it comes to his health. so ijust want to tell you that i'm starting to feel good. you don't know, over the next peri

the president has now left the white house and is in the care of the medical teams at walter reed medical centreth of washington. it is an unbelievable series of developments that have taken place today. two days ago, no—one could have imagined this. but now the president has coronavirus and he is in hospital, and who knows how the election will unfold. i'm joined now by barbara plett usher. she is outside the hospital. does the machinery of government simply moved to walter reed, where you are, or does it completely stopped while donald trump is there? well, the white house has said that president trump is not standing down. he hasn't allocated his powers to somebody else. he is still in charge, and they have said that he will continue with his duties here at the hospital. now, that is possible in terms of capabilities, because he is in an executive suite designed for presidents, really, which has all of the bells and whistles he needs to do that communications office space and so communications office space and so on, but really it depends on how he feels. he has just started to show symptoms,

images of donald trump walking out of the white house toward the helicopter on his way to walter reed medical centrehe shockwaves that have been sent through washington and beyond today —— maryland. the leader of one of the most powerful countries of the most powerful countries of the world has coronavirus and there are a lot of questions now about how much we can believe about the messaging coming out of the white house. the white house says that president trump is doing well and has mild symptoms of a fever right now but however i would say it is pretty remarkable that he is going to the hospital to be monitored for a few nights. it is interesting in the very rapid few hours that everyone has had, and a few hours ago people we re had, and a few hours ago people were talking about the potential application of the 25th amendment, the president has power to a vice president. has some of that speculation died away now that we have seen the president walking unaided to and from the helicopter?” think that shot you saw of the president walking unaided in a mask and, you know, to the helicopter on his ow
