when we came back, they kicked us off of the hancock. they were glad to see helicopters go because it is a real insult to a fixed wing carrier to have helicopters. how low can you go? [laughter] they were so happy to see us leave. we left and we landed at qb point, beautiful air station in the philippines. we needed to get back to okinawa. i had 14 aircraft crews, working different angles, what ship is heading back that way so we can get home? we were sailing back to the island on the uss okinowa. i am in the lead aircraft, the rotors are turning, everything is good, i can see on the horizon the silhouette of the island coming up. at that time, as some of you know, i had a girlfriend there and was eager to get back. all of a sudden, as i'm sitting there, the ship does one of these hard 90 degree turns and another 90 degree turn and i'm yelling to the crew chief, take the chains off. do something, we have to get off the ship. we immediately got the shutdown signal. a thing happened were a bunch of people had taken a u.s. freighter -- that

cnn's paula hancocks is live in seoul. what more do we know about this church? >> reporter: laura, this is an anti-government church, a conservative church. the issue at this point is a massive protest in downtown seoul. some 10,000 people believed to have been there. it was a protest against the government and pris asked not to go ahead but they did speak to the protests and he spoke without a mask. clearly there are now concerns about the thakt fact that there were more than able to track.

it is extraordinary really to see both gavin williamson and shifting the blame to off 0fqual matt hancockgland went in the end, yes either quangos but they are responsible and accountable to the ministers who set the targets and framed legislation that governs their strategy. who often involve an appointment to these bodies. so the idea that it is some sort of independent thing like it is debenhams or something and you can criticise what they are doing that, these are parts of the government and it is yourjob as the minister to think about whether they are fit for purpose, and in the middle of a crisis but ideally before a crisis. i think there is a huge danger to making these institution changes right now and particularly a huge danger to dido harding who of course people can make mistakes and learn from them and go want to be great leaders, but given that public health england or its replacement but it will have to have particular response about the lee around public health data and contact tracing, they will most private and personal data somebody who's been associated with such a high

i thought it said hancock faces the axe, when i first saw the headline, and it said hancock faces theline, and i thought that wasn't surprising. but how are you going to bring these things together, unless you have a very clear focus on what it is you are trying to deliver? and as nigel says, without test and trace and tracking, we are no nearer to being able to deal with a second wave of coronavirus or indeed another pandemic. and it is difficult to see just by shovelling the seats on the titanic or, you know, putting the same person in charge of test and trace in charge of this new health body, if you put scientists in charge of it, people might have more faith in it. and if you were using data and research to really target your messages to the people who are most at risk, which we now know, in terms of coronavirus, but, you know, there are other health issues, obesity being one of them. but there are an awful lot of people still waiting for cancer screening, heart and stroke treatments and things like that, so there is a huge issue facing the health service. the last thing they nee

health secretary matt hancock says that what's needed in the n.h.s. is harnessing technological development he says and many of us who may have had liked the way the telephone access to their g.p. surgery was actually an improvement on the waiting times reporting months what do you make of that hancock's desire to modernize the n.h.s. so it's truly harnessing technology this time because i don't say this lightly matt hang caucus discredit he couldn't get his figures straight talking about the number testing you remember was 10001 day then not quite he couldn't get these figures straight about p.p. equipment arriving here. but what he's great passion is is tech he loves technology and he loves it so much they did a period in an advert tauriel in the evening standard paid for by a private tech company babylon health which has got contracts from the n.h.s. what he said was which horrified. most doctors was that. g.p. consultations would be now by default. are online so yet another. remote that the doctor wouldn't actually see you the doctor would see you

the health secretary matt hancock has warned that further nationwide restrictions can't be ruled outthe message from the government is that they are preparing for the worse while doing everything they can to avoid it happening. simon jones, bbc news. travellers arriving into the uk from switzerland, the czech republic and jamaica must now quarantine for two weeks, after new rules came into force at 4am this morning. the government says the move is needed to keep the uk's infection rates down. meanwhile cuba, where there has been a drop in cases, has been added to the list of destinations people can return from without needing to self—isolate. there's been criticism of the uk governments‘ decision to ease regional lockdown restrictions in parts of the north—west england. the mayor of greater manchester, andy burnham, has said decisions on restrictions should not be "imposed" by central government. and the leader of trafford council described the move as "premature" after his area saw a slight increase in coronavirus infection rates in recent days. the health secretary matt hancock sai

cases especially in northern england here's what the prime minister and the health minister matt hancock had to say. with those numbers creeping up our assessment is that we should now squeeze that brake pedal squeeze that brake pedal in order to keep the virus under control on saturday the 1st of august you remember we had hoped to reopen in england a number of the higher risk settings that had remained closed last night the health secretary announced new restrictions on household contact in the northwest specifically greater manchester and in parts of east lancashire and west yorkshire what we've seen is that one of the causes of this increase is households gathering together ignoring the social distancing rules so we're having to bring in action and say that 2 households cannot meet indoors because that way we can help to stop the spread of the virus i know that the steps that we're taking will be a real blow to many people everyone obviously whose wedding plans have been disrupted or who cannot now celebrate ied in the way that they would wish and i'm really really sorry about that b

matt hancock said the new national institute for health protection will report directly to ministers.orts to ministers. in the case of this new body, it will bring together many aspects that are currently fragmented across various bodies of communities such as sage, phd, various other community. it will bring them together i think and create better accountability and allow better planning as we move forward and try to control this pandemic that we face. does it matter that the person leading this new institution does not have a background in health? baroness harding, ithink background in health? baroness harding, i think supermarkets also talk where she was in charge when there was an £80 million pack or cyber attack and a champion national hunt jockey. yes. a good question. in the long term the body needs to be led by an experienced public health specialist with expertise in controlling epidemics. in the short term, we could have somebody like baroness harding in charge. but in longer—term, it does need somebody with a very strong background in outbreak control and epidemic control.

to what, mr hancock? well, we're doubling them.ully people have broken the rules. but thankfully they are rare. but that doesn't make them any less wrong. we are all affected by this virus. and younger people who might feel that they're younger people who might feel that they‘ re less younger people who might feel that they're less likely to die as a result of the virus, they can still invite others, they can still infect members of their family and loved ones, so it's incredibly important that everybody follows the rules. generally, that is what is happening. and of course there are individual examples where it is not. and there we are going to take tough action. it is notjust the fine we have put in place in that example in manchester. we have also put stronger rules in place in terms of the use of that house. can i get you to a nswer the use of that house. can i get you to answer a couple of questions quickly? there is one other subject i want to get to. and what is happening in france, from september the 1st, france will have f

let's get more now on the health secretary matt hancock's plans to disband public health england — andnctions. phe has come under intense scrutiny for its response to the coronavirus crisis — but labour say the changes in the middle of a pandemic are "irresponsible" and "risky". our health correspondent richard galpin reports. public health england's mission is to protect and improve the nation's health. including responding to emergencies, such as pandemics. but now the government has decided to abolish it, effectively accusing it of mishandling the coronavirus crisis. in its place, a new agency has been set up. to give ourselves the best chance of beating this virus, and of spotting and tackling other external health threats now and in the future, we need to bring together the science and the scale into one coherent whole. so today i am announcing that we are forming a new organisation, the national institute for health protection. the government criticism of public health england, or phe, includes claims it failed to ramp up testing capacity quickly enough. but, at that time, the de

as matt hancock said, it's a big increase that's being planned as simonjones now reports.tor of infection levels in england. now it is being extended to also include households in scotland, wales and northern ireland. the number of people being tested every two weeks is being increased from 28,000 to 150,000. quickly identifying local outbreaks such as those in leicester is seen as vital in combating covid—19 and the ons believes extending its testing will show what is going on in much greater detail right down to city levels. helping government and local authorities to quickly identify any outbreaks and impose restrictions and lockdowns. these police helicopter pictures show how the local restrictions currently in place in manchester were broken at the weekend. the organiser of this party was fined. testing, tracing and combating covid relies on people sticking to the rules. the increased levels of testing will be in place by october and the results will be published every week. simon jones, bbc news. the health secretary, matt hancock says the expansion of testing in the

you heard matt hancock saying that it's very important for those face—to—face meetings, i think the keyissueissue is the commute that for the past couple of months, people have been commuting from the bedroom to the spare bedroom prism to get back up and go on a train or in a car is something people feel quite relu cta nt to car is something people feel quite reluctant to do. there's been some chatter that the government is going to have a three day rail to encourage people to come into the office for at least three days a week but you can understand why people are enjoying the flexibility of being back at home. if you like the next month is going to be very crucial on this getting back to work thing because a lot of people are being aware of the summer we haven't had that much time before the summer break, if offices do not start to fill up before september, we are going to be in a place where a lot of companies will really begin to reassess the need for their big city centre and of course, the knock on the fact that we have seen already with them announcing almost 3000 redundancies in the ce

matt hancock stood up in the house of commons and admitted that these tests were not fit for purpose they are saying is they do not want care homes to have them in their stock cupboards and start using them again so to avoid confusion they are asking for them to be sent back to the regulator. they were originally 1.3 million sent out and as you mentioned 750,000 are thought to be still out there on used so the government wa nts there on used so the government wants those back so they do not get used incorrectly. so an attempt to make... last month they were saying don't use them now they are saying let's just get them out so people do not think they are ok but they are saying the swaps are unaffected so it's quite confusing isn't it? if the kits were a0 you would expect the kits were a0 you would expect the swap is not to work. that's right. it seems like there was some kind of problem with the swabs because the department of health has admitted they are now doing checks on the sterility of those swabs but also there was another problem because these test kits did not have the kitema
