cnn's scott mclean has more from london. >> wolf, the british health secretary is not ruling out theecond nationwide lockdown to try to get a handle on the resurgence of the coronavirus. today, the government expanded localized restrictions which essentially banned almost all in-person socializing with people outside of your own household. the health secretary is pleading with people to follow the rules, but he says that if things continue to get worse, that nationwide lockdown is there as a last line of defense. right now, the virus is showing up increasingly in older segments of the population and also in care homes, and as a result, the number of hospitalizations is doubling about every eight days. the government is also dealing with a testing shortage, which means that it's having to prioritize who gets a test sxoo who doesn't. and right now, it's set aside more than one third of the tests that it does have for care homes. wolf. >> scott mclean in london, thank you. >>> cases and hospitalizations in israel are also rising. at a truly alarming rate right now, and the government th

let's get more about it from scott mclean standing by live for us in london.eresting, scott, we see this in many countries, even though cases are on the rise, people do not want their freedoms encroached upon. >> yeah, you know, a lot of people look at those protest pictures and wonder how protests is allowed in this type of climate. believe it or not, protests are perfectly fine. provided that the organizers submit a plan for risk assessment, and then commit to social distancing, wearing masks, things like that. then they're allowed to go ahead. despite the fact that the uk has limited social gatherings to six people, the police in this case felt that the crowd wasn't adhering to the plan that it had put forward in the first place. the bottom line is in the uk, cases are rising quickly. pretty alarming rate. for the last couple of days we had more than 6,000 new confirmed cases every single day. the government last week said the virus is doubling about every seven days. the number of people, the total number of people in the hospital is rising by about 100 pe

let's get more on these developments from our scott mclean, standing by live in london. they did have this issue, but looks like they're moving forward, scott. >> yeah, you're absolutely right, natalie. experts say if you took any group of people, any large group of thousands of people and watched them for a couple of months, someone in that group is bound to get sick. when it comes to a vaccine trial it a matter of figuring out exactly why. in this case, you're talking about 18,000 people that had the vaccine or a placebo so far. the company's goal is to put the shots in 50,000 arms before it is all said and done. with volunteers from around the world. so in this case, the person with this unexplained illness was here in the uk, but the trial was paused around the world. so when you have this kind of a trial, the first thing you have to do -- when you have this kind of potential adverse reaction or unexplained illness, the first thing you have to do is figure out whether the person had the actual vaccine or the placebo. if they had the vaccine, you have to figure out wa

scott mclean, many thanks. appreciate it. >>> all right. so let's bring in keith neil. he is professor amerituss of epidemiology of infectious diseases at the university of nottingham. good to have you with us. >> good morning. >> so what is going on in britain when fines need to be imposed on people who test. they go to the trouble of testing positive for covid-19, but fail to self-isolate. and does this make a second lockdown more likely and more necessary? >> i think if people don't -- people who are known to be infectious don't isolate appropriately then we are really in a serious difficulty. the contacts of those people named as contacts is a little bit easier to explain, understand why they don't actually self-isolate because they probably don't think it's necessary. but certainly one of these spikes in the northwest, according to the local mayor, was due to someone who was meant to be isolating having returned from a foreign holiday and went on a pub crawl. >> that is very unfortunate. so talk to us about why parts of northeastern england are being hit so hard wi

cnn's scott mclean is live in london with the very latest on this increasingly bad situation, scott.y, john. just as president trump says that the u.s. is rounding the corner on its pandemic, well, british health officials say that this country has turned a corner in a bad way. things are getting worse here. last week, the government imposed new restrictions on social gatherings, but a week on, it's not really clear whether they're having much of an impact, considering that health officials announced just within the last hour that the virus is doubling about every seven days. so if that trajectory continus,s the uk could actually see more daily cases than the u.s. is seeing. the government promised over the weekend to get tougher on the rules that are in place right now, particularly around quarantine, which are pretty laxly enforced, if they're enforced at all. the health secretary says he's trying to avoid the situation playing out right now in france and in spain. in france, the government has imposed new rules around masks and social gatherings in cities like bordeaux and marseil

cnn's scott mclean live in london with the very latest here. scott. >> reporter: hey, john.down in this country as this government's last resort. so in order to prevent that, new restrictions have been announced fast and furious. last week it was the number of people allowed in a social gathering and boris johnson announced some more. pubs will have to close tomorrow and fans to get the soccer fans in the stadiums has to be put on indefinitely and if you have the ability to work from you should. a month ago they said let's get the back open and get workers back in the offices. not anymore. the transmission of the virus is high or exponential and the young people have fueled the resurgence of the virus but the number of cases is rising. in fact, new cases are doubling every seven days and if that rate were to continue for just four weeks this country would be seeing some 50,000 new cases per day. that's more than you're seeing in the united states. and the uk has just one-fifth of the population. the prime minister though is going to have to sell this plan to the british publ

let's go to scott mclean in london for more on all these stories.o many problems there, where do you want to start? >> yeah, there is a lot of ground to cover for sure, kim. the name of the game is trying to tamp down the second wave of the virus. the governor is trying to use all the tools it has at its disposal without resorting to the blunt instrument that could be a second national lockdown. so, it is mandated that bars and restaurants close early across england, mask guidelines, mask mandates, legal mandates inside shops and stores and also put limits on social gatherings as well. it is also now focusing, while it waits to figure out whether those measures will actually work, on clamping down on enforcement and education as well. and for good reason here, kim. a study out this week or study yet to be published, but the results were released this week from kings college in london, showed that less than half of people surveyed, 30,000 people they surveyed, could actually identify the main symptoms of covid-19, high temperature, cough and loss of

scott mclean is live in london. what's the latest? >> reporter: hey, kim.st on paper the uk has surpassed the first peak of the infections, but in reality the health minister says that the 6,000-plus cases a day that are being reported actually pale in comparison to the first wave where he thinks that the vast majority of cases simply weren't being caught by the limited testing that they had. hospitalizations, for instance, were 12 times higher back in the spring compared to what they are today. the overall trend is not good. in response, government has brought in new rules, to strengthen existing rules, and brought in a contact-tracing app which should be able to detect whether someone in close proximity to you have tested positive for the virus. almost two years ago the prime minister announced the rule of six -- limiting social gatherings to no more than six people across england regardless of how many households were involved. that, though, has proven not previously the silver bullet that perhaps the government hoped that it would be because the r rate,

let's turn to scott mclean, he's live in london. good morning to you, scott.oks like this trial is back on track. >> reporter: yeah, you're absolutely right, natalie. the person who had this unexplained illness was here in the uk. but the trial was paused around the world. and when this type of pause happens, which is not without precedent, the first thing that they have to do is figure out, well, was this person actually given the vaccine or were they given the placebo. if they had the vaccine, you have to figure out was it caused by the vaccine or was it completely coincidental. the company also said this week this is not first time the trial was paused. astrazeneca said this is not first time this trial was paused. it was paused in july when they discovered a case of multiple scl sclerosis. now this is a matter of oxford university and astrazeneca going to the other health regulators to get the same permission before they can resume there. the ceo says despite the setback, it is still very possible to have this vaccine approved by the end of the year. it ju
