at the government responded at all to the oxford . responded at all to the oxford university researchnation of the difference with daily testing? the figures indicated that 1.6% of those who self isolated caught the virus versus 1.5% of those who protested daily. i mean, presumably, they look specifically at schools but i could be rolled out across all sectors. —— versus 1.5% of those who were tested daily. i don't think i will pay direct response to my role in the government response but i think it will be factored in. they will be taken on the balance of risk the people to self—isolate which they are not fully vaccinated but as some are not fully vaccinated but as some are arguing and some of the scientific evidence points to testing people day to day can be as effective, perhaps, or perhaps even more effective than people isolating in terms of limiting the spread of the virus but that is not where the government is going at this point and it's not showing any sign at the moment of widening these exemptions to other parts of the economy beyond the absolute critical list of sectors t

professor dominic wilkinson joining us tonight from oxford university.e appreciate your insights tonight. thank you. day three of the olympics. more golden moments with a teenage japanese skateboarder and a slovenian nba star among those grabbing the headlines. but organizers now have to deal with yet another problem beyond their control, as a tropical storm moves in. reporter: the tokyo olympics have withstood a pandemic and wave. now -- a heatwave. now they must survive a typhoon. yet locals are upbeat. >> the waves are always like this when a typhoon comes, but they often become better when the typhoon has gone. i hope that happens. reporter: riding a wave of goodwill was japanese 13-year-old momiji nishiya. she won the first ever gold in women's history skateboarding and became the second youngest champion in olympics history. in basketball, nba star luka doncic delivered a performance for the ages. the dallas mavericks player scored 48 points, as his slovenia team brushed aside argentina. in the pool, britain defended his 100 meter brushstroke gold,

a study by oxford university has found that daily lateral flow testing for pupils exposed to covid—19s has no end of frustration in households in this pandemic. take last week for example, department for education says that onjuly 15, department for education says that onjuly15, over1 million state school pupils in england did not attend class for covid related reasons. of those, more than 930,000 were than 930 , 000 were self—isolating than 930,000 were self—isolating due to a possible contact with a covid case. but, a new study by oxford university suggests that daily testing is a safe alternative to isolating contacts. researchers followed pupils and staff in more than 200 schools. in more than half of the close contacts of positive cases, they had to isolate for ten days. in the other half, however, close contacts of positive cases were offered supervised daily tests at school over seven days. they were allowed to carry on as normal ever negative. i think the results of this study are really, really reassuring for parents as well as for students and for teachers. what we see here

published by oxford university president -- oxford university press in 2008. it is a book that has shaped and continues to shape u.s. freedom legislation and foreign policy. judge ken starr has had a distinguished career in academia, and public service. having served as president and chancellor of baylor university and dean of the pepperdine school of law, judge starr continues to teach law, serves regularly as a commentator for various television and radio programs. he serves on the boards of advocates international and the christian legal society. and, on the advisory board of alliance of defending freedom. as a constitutional expert, and a master lawyer, ken has argued 36 cases before the u.s. supreme court, including during his service as u.s. solicitor general. he served as the united states circuit judge for the district of columbia circuit, as counselor and chief of staff to u.s. attorney general william barr and smith, and as a law clerk to both chief justice warren burger and a fifth circuit. -- and fifth circuit judge david dyer. as most of you know,

let's get more now on the study conducted by the university of oxford into the effectiveness of dailyght, vice principal of southmoor academy in sunderland. she's also lead commissioner for schools and higher education at the social mobility foundation. welcome. thank you forjoining us. tell us first of all what the impact has been on your pupils and your school of self isolation? it has been on your pupils and your school of self isolation?- school of self isolation? it has been pretty — school of self isolation? it has been pretty devastating. i school of self isolation? it has been pretty devastating. the | been pretty devastating. the last day of term we were down to about a20 students out of what should have been over 1000. i think the thing important to understand is it's not just about simple metrics of days lost, it's about momentum lost. you have students who are isolating from disadvantaged backgrounds without parental support, disadvantaged backgrounds without parentalsupport, often disadvantaged backgrounds without parental support, often not doing much work at all and the

welcomed by one of the chief adviser's to the governnt on coronavirus, professor john bell of oxford university pointing out that when you are talking about america and european countries, you are talking about countries which are using really good vaccines, where coverage is generally quite good. fullvaccinated people don't pose the same risks. of course, as your last guest hinted, it is another story for many other countries around the world. even some of our bbc colleagues coming back to visit relatives are having to quarantine in hotels. that costs money. this is really a story about rich countries being able to open up while four countries remain lited -- poorer countries remain limited in their travel options. >> we are seeing the ndon heathrow ceo looking for a lighter form of testing, shall we say. maybe that is the next step. on the whole, are people reacting positively? >> i suppose. government ministers would say we got to a point in the pandemic where if you don't open travel now, when do you open it? everyone is very conscious, in the next few weeks, we are going to have summer bre

what about the fact the viral evolution expert at oxford university, arizona category saying we have 92 percent of the bodies in this country. we now have the possibility of immune escape in terms of mutation at its highest level in britain here. obviously, scientists around the world criticizing the british government in a way, sage by inference, is now the time that we are most going to be able to expect a new british variant because of the high levels of explanation here in britain, they don't quite work that way. if you've got, if you've got very high levels of explanation in most of your population, you stop the virus and evolving in these areas because it's got less opportunity. the worst case scenario when you get partial vaccination in your community, your mailbox nation. and that's why we do need to push forward and get as much the populations actually said, i'm not sure that i quite agree with his argument and many others that don't agree with his argument. the, the concern for me is here is that the pediatric population. we probably only got about 25 percent of the populat

but a new study by oxford university suggests that if daily lateral flow testing is done in school over transmission as isolating pupils at home. what we see here is that for people in schools and colleges, the chance of getting infected with covid—19 when there has been a case in the school or college is low — it's less than 2%, one in 50. i am really confident that what this study shows us is that daily testing of contacts is a safe thing to do in schools and colleges. the researchers believe daily contact testing like this can help reduce school absences. but can schools cope with this kind of intensive testing done on site? it's very difficult. we've made it work before. i'm sure with the help of my support staff we can make it work again, but we need to know exactly what is expected of us and we need to know as soon as possible. but we need clarity, we need consistency, we need our kids in school and the staff to be able to teach them. some experts worry whether lateral flow tests will detect enough positive cases, especially when infections are running high. but government adviser

welcomed by one of the chief advisers to the government on coronavirus my professorjohn bell of oxford universityt that when you're talking about america and european countries, you are talking about countries which are using really good vaccines and where coverage is generally quite good. and so, fully vaccinated people don't pose the same risks. of course, as your last guest hinted, it is another story for many other countries around the world. and even some of our bbc colleagues coming back to visit relatives are having to do quarantine in hotels. that costs money, so this is really a story about, you know, rich countries being able to open up more, whilst poorer countries will remain very limited in their travel options. i limited in theirtravel options. i think it will be interesting to see what we are seeing at the heathrow sco, looking for a lighterform of testing, shall we say. maybe that will be the next step. but on the whole, are people reacting positively?— whole, are people reacting positively? well, i suppose government _ positively? well, i suppose government ministers - positively

the telegraph leads on an oxford university study which suggests testing schoolchildren on a daily basis the classroom is just as effective as forcing them to quarantine at home. the nhs�* 3% pay rise is the lead for the guardian — but the paper notes the health service is being forced to pick up some of the bill for the cost of its own staff's pay increase. the ft picks up on the outcome of an official review which has found that the disgraced financier lex greensill enjoyed an "extraordinarily privileged" relationship with the government despite his ideas on supply chain finance providing no obvious benefit. so let's begin... penny, do you want to kick us out this evening? lovely to see you. let's start with the metro. do you think we should ping in the army? [30 think we should ping in the army? drr you know what? i'm quite glad that i'm not in government. it is extraordinarily difficult to sort all this out, nowhere to go with this. now that we know that they are going to be these 16 industries where you are going to be able to actually apply to have your exemptions i wonder if there

here's the big picture on june, tina to started off the shops from our world and data oxford university, the numbers from johns hopkins university. these are the debts now totaling as we say over a 100000 at this point here, that is june. the 11th non, about a month or so ago, a peak of $600.00, that's a day. it is now down to less than $400.00 debts a day. so despite reaching that 100000 and figured debts definitely on the decline, and then here we look at new cases, which again reached a pretty big peak. they're talking about $30000.00 plus a day in late may. now, down at this point of about 15500 cases a day, theresa both has that report now from point a cyrus federal was repeat, ada is trying to recover from the loss of her parents. they both died of call with 19 whatever. what up august? for us, it is very hard and i've been left alone. my siblings live in different places. first my mother died and then my father, i don't know what to feel any more about this terrible disease. i didn't, tina has reached the grim milestone of 100000 co with 19 deaths. it's one of the hardest heed na

the clinical trial for vaccine is underway in the united kingdom and researchers at the university of oxford say they have high hopes or respond natasha suite has more on the international collaborative project. university of oxford, is it ministry and h i v vaccination 213 healthy adults who do not have the virus. the trial is part of the european aids vaccine initiative. and researchers are looking to make major progress. never seen before. denila yogato alvy has enrolled in this h r v. clinical trial being conducted by the university of oxford in a treat. he says he's the 1st person that will be getting the possible h i v vaccine currently being developed by researchers. then on monday, i'll be posted a picture of himself after getting inoculated. he, along with 12 other participants, will receive a booster dose in 4 weeks. scientists say in h r i b vaccine has been elusive for 40 years. they say that very trial is the 1st of many to help prevent those without the virus and will also help paint the way for a cure while challenging researchers are focusing on finding common ground among a

but a new study by oxford university suggests daily testing is a safe alternative to isolating contactsaff in more than 200 schools. in half, the close contacts of positive cases had to isolate for ten days. in the other half, however, close contacts of positive cases were offered supervised daily tests at school over seven days and allowed to carry on as normal if they were negative. i think the results of this study are really reassuring for parents, as well as for students and for teachers. what we see here is that for people in schools and colleges, the chance of getting infected with covid—19, when there has been a case in school or college is low, it's less than 2%, one in 50. what we also see is dct is able to pick up those people who are most infectious, even when they don't have symptoms. i am really confident that what this study shows us is daily testing of contacts is a safe thing to do in schools and colleges. the researchers said their findings would make encouraging reading for parents and teachers, especially as they believe daily contact testing could reduce covid—relat

doctor alex budzier is from the business school at oxford university. thank you for being with us.and actual costs that tokyois estimates and actual costs that tokyo is facing, this could be very well in the range of $30 billion. it is quite a large billion. it is quite a large bill to pay for the olympics. could it have been avoided? maybe by not hosting the games, like as the cities that dropped out for the bidding — or the otherfive out for the bidding — or the other five candidates cities that didn't win in 2013 — they certainly avoided that massive head. how much of an issue isn't for the olympics committee that the cost of the games has risen so much over the past decades? and how easy is it for cities to recuperate the monies that they spend? we see it is really hard for the cities to recoup the money that they spend, and c and economic case and hosting. most host cities lose money over these sort of investments, and that really puts the ioc and that really puts the ioc and a hard position. as we can see, the next olympics will be in paris or la because nobody wanted it. jus

i mean, yeah, you cite the oxford university study saying 18 percent believe some races or less intelligent? did it not surprise you after the euro? 2020 final. when we saw graffiti daub done their mom because rash with work in manchester, when we saw masses of abuse reading one tory m p saying yeah, less politics rash with more football practice. it did not surprise you know, it doesn't surprise me what. what i believe is that those people are in the minority and they'll not normal will continue to get smaller and smaller. actually, i'm, when people talk about pe teacher and you're surprised them all the apologies i'm doing these are doing. the politicians are just like you and i am just that they get people to vote for the politics is a popularity contest in the contest to to who can do the job the best, the politics, the popularity contest. so don't be because you're a politician or you're in be this great person or that person. you want a popularity contest. that's it. you see some people may take issue with your line in the book when you say you couldn't care less about the political a

let's start with the big picture on argentina and chops from our world and day to oxford university. the numbers of course, from john hopkins university. this is the death, right daily death rights. and, you know, just recently, i'll circle it here at this point. this is june, the 11th, and we were looking at 600000. i'm sorry, 600 deaths a day. the good news is that at the moment, we're now down to here about 400. in fact, less than $400.00 debts a day. so there is some good news, even though we're past 100000, the rate is coming down. similarly, this chart which looks at the number of new daily cases. and this point here, this peak that is late may, early, june, not long ago, upwards of 30000 new cases again. now we're looking at this sort of number 15 and a half 1000 a day. so again, best still high numbers, but very much coming down. let's start with this report, theresa both important fires. sandra was a pit ada is trying to recover from the loss of her parents. they both died of call with 19 order. what up for us it is very hard and i've been left alone. my siblings live in dif

so this research from oxford university suggests one hopes a sort of a better way out of trying to deal children having to take time off school. our own research has shown about one third of learning has been lost in the first year of the pandemic. about half of the school days lost and nothing can replace face—to—face teaching, and we know that if we don't address those losses, then this will have a generational impact. it will affect children for years to come. 50. generational impact. it will affect children for years to come.- children for years to come. so, a generational— children for years to come. so, a generational impact, _ children for years to come. so, a generational impact, that - children for years to come. so, a generational impact, that is - children for years to come. so, a l generational impact, that is huge. also what do we know about the impact on different groups people? are there some who have suffered more than others if i can put it that way?— more than others if i can put it that way? more than others if i can put it thatwa ? , , that way? yes, absolutely. so,

a new paper coming out of the oxford university group issuing that long haul covid can actually lead to commonly, gray matter brain degeneration, that almost resembles alzheimer's disease associated with cognitive decline, memory loss. that was looked at more and adults, now we have data from jama, showing that about 26% of young adults are getting long haul covid. we don't have good data on the adolescents, some people say five to 10%, 15 to 20%, but who wants to risk that? this is a time in their lives where they're applying for universities or taking their sats. getting jobs after college. this is not a time in your life where you want to be suffering long term neurological deficits, which are preventable, through vaccination. only 20% of the adolescents are vaccinated in the state of tennessee compared to three or four times higher rates in the northeast. we're going to subject all of these adolescents and kids, and younger dogs to the effects of long haul covid, and in terms of thousands and thousands, and it just doesn't have to be this way. >> final question for you, represent

now we have seen from oxford university a degeneration of gray matter, we are going to wind up disabling a generation of young americans because of that disinformation. >> and how about we can choose to have americans not get sick at all. you can choose to get vaccinated. peter, one more question. this one blew my mind. the cdc officially saying schools should prioritize in person learning this fall. yeah, of course. we absolutely should and need to be back in school in person. there should be no scenario where we're not. >> well, certainly in massachusetts and vermont, yeah, we can do it safely because all of the adults and adolescents are vaccinated. the hard thing to figure out is how we do this say in louisiana or mississippi where fewer than 20% of adolescents are vaccinated, low percentage of young adults. there's going to be potentially a lot of transmission from the delta variant. we still have a few more weeks before the school year starts. i am quite concerned. >> peter, hold on. people in those states are choosing not to be vaccinated and those same people are expecting and de

now we have new studies coming out of oxford university showing that people who have long hall covid, a significant percentage of gray brain matter degeneration. it's linked to memory and performance and speech. all of these young people who think they're impervious, even if they don't die because the death numbers are low among young people, they're going to have a lot of debilitating symptoms that could go on for a long time, an unknown period of time. this is the message we have to get across. we're seeing better vaccination rates among older americans. it's all the young people who have gotten this disinformation that they don't need to get vaccinated and remind them what long-haul covid can do to their ability to function at a high level for months or years to come. >> quality of life could be severely impacted. >> on friday you told my colleague boosters will be needed eventually, but we don't need it urgently. what would tell you now is the time? what is that threshold or trigger point? >> the reason is because as good a job as we're doing in the u.s. and some parts of the coun

there was a paper from oxford university medical school in the last couple weeks showing people who docovid often have significant degeneration in gray matter in the brain. and a young person with a developing brain you have to worry about that. we have an obligation to get vaccinated if you are eligible to prevent you from getting 16 and loved ones. but to halt the community transmission. that's happening in the northeast and massachusetts, vermont, california. it's not going to happen in missouri. it's not happens in arkansas. and it looks like it's not happening in the south this summer. so you're going to see a lot of sick young people. it's tragic and predicted. a predictable. >> and unnecessary. thanks a lot. the codirector at the texas children's hospital center for vaccine development. stay with us. after a quick break we'll go back to charlottesville, virginia where the city took down the controversial confederate monument of general robert e. lee. getting ready to take down another monument. we'll have a live report from there next. ment we'll have a live report from there ne

new paper coming out of the oxford university group has shown that long haul covid can actually lead to commonly with alzheimer's disease in some aspects associated with cognitive decline, memory loss and that was looked at more in adults but now we've got data from jama, the journal of the american medical association, showing 26% of young adults are getting long haul covid. we don't have good data on adolescents. some say 5 to 10%, 15 to 20%. who wants to risk that. this is a time in their lives when they're applying for universities, taking their sats, getting jobs after college. this is not a time in your life when you want to be suffering long-term neurologic deficits which are entirely preventible through vaccination. only 20% of the adolescents are vaccinated in the state of tennessee compared to three or four times higher rates in the northeast. we're going to subject all of these adolescents and kids and young adults to the effects of long haul covid in terms of thousands and thousands and it doesn't have to be this way. >> final question for you, representative lamar. is th

a new paper's just come out from the group at oxford university. the neuroscience center there. -- a significant percentage will actually develop gray matter, brain degeneration as a consequence of long haul covid with an uncertain recovery time. and that's important for memory, for cognitive performance. and so what you're doing is you're condemning a whole generation of adolescents to neurologic injury totally unnecessarily. >> let me ask you, i just anecdotally heard of a couple of people who i know who have tested -- who got vaccinated but have tested positive with the delta variant. does that mean that even if their cases are mild, they have a very strong possibility of getting the long haul covid, of having long haul symptoms? >> you know, that's a great question. i'm asked that quite a bit now. and the answer is i don't think we really understand whether breakthrough covid in a vaccinated individual is the same in someone who's not been infected before. and that's something that, unfortunately, we'll start to find out with delta accelerating. so the number of breakthrough

this is kind of a new study led by the university of oxford. while it reveal a strong immune response, many way from 3 to 10 weeks between shots that identify that 8 week gap between doses as the sweet spot. the trade off in that longer interval is a drop in antibody levels between the 1st and 2nd doses. and importantly, the study noted the decline in anti bodies needed to fight off the delta variance. but regardless of the dosing schedule research and said to 5 shots generate robust immune responses, his susanna dunahee, the professor of infectious diseases at the university of oxford. and actually the joint chief investigator of the study known as pitch. she says people who have received the 2 doses of pfizer at shorter intervals still be confident they are protected. first of all, i'd like to say that today's is a bit vaccine and very good to inducing immune responses. and if you've had your price back in on a short dosing info, don't worry it's, it's a great back thing. we just found that you, kate strategy, which was to give along the stra

that's according to a new study led by the university of oxford. while it revealed a strong immune response anywhere from $3.00 to $10.00 weeks between shots that identified an 8 tweet gap between those is as a sweet spot. the trade off in that longer interval as a drop in antibody levels between the 1st and 2nd doses. and importantly, the study noted was the decline in antibodies needed to fight off the delta variant . but regardless of the dosing shed, your research is said to fire a shot generate robust immune responses. let's talk now to susanna dunnahugh. she's a professor of infectious diseases at the university of oxford and also joint chief investigator in the study. the study is known as pitch. she joins us from oxford, santa donna, he welcome to the news out. so does this mean that one has less protection? if you had dose one of pfizer on day one and those 228 days later. right. hello. and we'll 1st hold to say, this is an immunology study and we're waiting for further studies and effectiveness . and what we found was, on average, if you

this is, according to a study led by the university of oxford. while it revealed a strong immune response anywhere from 3 to 10 weeks between shots, it identified an 8 week gap between doses as the sweet spot tradeoff. and that longer interval as a drop in antibody levels between the doses. and importantly, the study noted there was a decline in antibodies needed to fight off the delta variance. but regardless of the dosing schedule, research is said to find the shots generate robust immune responses. some thoughts now from susanna deny she has a professor of infectious diseases at the university of oxford, the joint chief investigator in that study, which is known as pitch. she says that people who have received their 25 doses at shorter intervals, should still be confident that they are protected. first of all, i'd like to say that today's is a bit vaccine and very good to inducing mean responses. and if you're happy about, you know, a short dosing interval, don't worry it's, it's a great back thing. we just found that you, kate strategy, which

but a new study by oxford university suggests daily testing is a safe alternative to isolating contactsin more than 200 schools. in half, the close contacts of positive cases had to isolate for ten days. in the other half, however, close contacts of positive cases were offered supervised daily tests at school over seven days and allowed to carry on as normal if they were negative. i think the results of this study are really reassuring for parents, as well as for students and for teachers. what we see here is that for people in schools and colleges, the chance of getting infected with covid—19, when there has been a case in school or college is low, it's less than 2%, one in 50. what we also see is dct is able to pick up those people who are most infectious, even when they don't have symptoms. i am confident that what this study shows us is daily testing of contacts is a safe thing to do in schools and colleges. researchers said findings would make encouraging reading for parents and teachers, especially as they believe daily contact testing could reduce covid—related absences by as muc
