just when i spoke to matthew taylor, we had a few more figures through from france and in fact we areber since the start of the pandemic. so the situation in france, let's take a look at other european countries. and there have been demonstrations in eastern germany against new coronavirus restrictions. they include a limit on private gatherings to ten vaccinated people and the closure of nightclubs. students of all ages will have to wear masks in school, and sports competitions will be held behind closed doors. unvaccinated people are already banned from much of public life, and only two people are allowed to meet in private. us health authorities have halved the recommended isolation period for people who test positive for covid, but don't exhibit symptoms. they've previously warned of a half a million cases a day in the coming weeks as the omicron variant takes hold. that isolation time goes from ten to five days. officials insist this is being guided by the science. so, why is this step being taken now? we put that question to david edwards, an aerosol scientist and a harvard univ

we have stands at 8230 people in hospital on the second of december, let's get thoughts from matthew taylore chief executive of the nih confederation, a memory chip organization in england, wales and northern ireland. >> we need to be cautious about the data. the infection rate massively underestimates with going on in the community because that's just the people who have had a test and reported that test results. i think the death figure also reflects the fact that we have been in this christmas time. hospitalization rates are going up. it seems to be the people with covid in hospitals may not be suffering from the level of acuity we've seen in the past, less need to use intensive care. but do remember if you have covid in the hospital, you are subject to infection control. that's to make sure those patients are not infecting other people. anchor: joining me now is our political correspondent in the u.k. they u.k. government seems to have a steady as she goes approach at the moment and gives the impression it feels increasingly confident that things are broadly speaking under control. gues

let's get the thoughts on all of that of matthew taylor, chief executive of nhs confederation, the membershipwhole health care system in england, wales and northern ireland. we need to be cautious about the data. we know, for example, the infection rate massively underestimates what's actually going on in the communities. that's reallyjust the rate of people who've had a test and reported that test result. sadly, i think the death figure also reflects the fact that we've been in this christmas period. what we do know is the hospitalisation rate is going up. now, it seems to be that the people with covid in hospitals may not be suffering on the level of acuity that we've seen in the past, less need to use intensive care. but do remember that if you have covid in hospital, you still are subject to infection controls, so that's still a demand on health service leaders, on doctors and nurses, to make sure that those patients are not infecting other people. with me is our uk political correspondentjonathan blake. jonathan, the government seems to come off with responsibility for england only, seem

matthew taylor, chief executive of the nhs confederation, said it is now a battle against time to avoidnary findings from a large—scale study in south africa suggest two recent doses of the pfizerjab could provide 70 per cent protection against hospitalisation from the omicron variant. )the study looked at more than 200,000 positive covid test results in a three—week period — of which almost 80,000 were suspected but not confirmed to be omicron cases. the initial results, released by a large private health insurance company, also showed that two doses provided 33 percent protection against infection. peter openshaw is an immunologist at imperial college london and a member of the uk vaccine network. he gave us his reaction to the findings. i think this is really interesting report. we have to regard it as preliminary. we have not seen draft manuscript, this isjust a news report. it fits with what we have assumed, which is the rather disappointing results from the laboratory testing of antibody levels have not been completely reflected by the real—world protection seen against hospitalis

janet taylor, psychiatrist and trauma counselor, rabbi matthew gohertz, author and senior rabbi, and christian church here in mayfield. dr. west, we are so grateful for you and the other panelists tonight. i have to say, you are pastor of a church here, also a psychologist? >> that's correct. >> we want to talk to both of those. the nation has seen how much this community has gone through. what concerns you most in this moment going forward? >> i think there is a danger in overinterpreting the events of the last five days. reaching conclusions about what it all means and those kinds of things. so one of the things that we hope people will do is take a moment and reflect on not what it all means and not to look back on the past and that kind of thing, but to think about the immediate needs, their immediate feelings and thoughts, and then long-term as a matter of faith, cling to the people that are close by. an event like this has a positive effect in a very sad way, but sometimes it knocks down the barriers between people, their differences, and they find more common ground. going thr
